jab merii haqiiqat jaa jaa kar un ko sunaaii logon ne - Ibrahim Ashk

jab merii haqiiqat jaa jaa kar un ko sunaaii logon ne

kuchh sach bhii kahaa kuchh jhuuth kahaa kuchh baat banaaii logon ne

dhaayen hain hameshaa zulm-o-sitam duniyaa ne muhabaat vaalon par

do dil ko kabhii milane na diyaa diivaar uthaaii logon ne

aankhon se na aansuu ponch sake honthon pe Khushii dekhii na gaii

aabaad jo dekhaa ghar meraa to aag lagaaii logon ne

tanhaaii kaa saathii mil na sakaa rusvaaii men shaamil shahar huaa

pahale to meraa dil tod diyaa phir iid manaaii logon ne

is daur men jiinaa mushkil hai ai 'ashk' koii aasaan nahiin

har ik qadam par marane kii ab rasm chalaaii logon ne
