Zaban Pe KHud-baKHud Arz-E-Mohabbat Aai Jati Hai

Mushtaq Naqvi

zaban pe ḳhud-baḳhud arz-e-mohabbat aa.i jaati hai

khule paḌte hain arman zindagi sharma.i jaati hai

bulave aa rahe hain manzilon ke shaam se lekin

tamannaon ko in ki god men niind aa.i jaati hai

vo aa.e hain tasalli ke liye lekin ye aalam hai

nigahen nam hain lau avaz ki tharra.i jaati hai

dimagh-o-dil ki saari kashmakash bekar-o-la-hasil

nashe ki tarah us ki yaad sab par chha.i jaati hai

nahin kuchh tere baa.is ye udasi bad-guman mat ho

jahan jaata huun mere saath ye tanha.i jaati hai
