kabhii kitaabon men phuul rakhanaa - Hasan Rizvi

kabhii kitaabon men phuul rakhanaa

kabhii darakhton pe naam likhanaa

hamen bhii hai yaad aaj tak vo

nazar se harf-e-salaam likhanaa

vo chaand chehare vo bahakii baaten

sulagate din the mahakatii raaten

vo chhote-chhote se kaagazon par

muhabbaton ke payaam likhanaa

gulaab cheharon se dil lagaanaa

vo chupake chupake nazar milaanaa

vo aarazuuon ke khvaab bunanaa

vo qissaa-e-naatamaam likhanaa

mere nagar kii hasiin fazaao

kahiin jo un ke nishaan paao

to puuchhanaa ye kahaan base ho

kahaan hain un kaa qayaam likhanaa

gaii ruton men "hasan" hamaaraa

bas ek hii to ye mashagalaa thaa

kisii ke chehare ko subah kahanaa

kisii kii zulfon ko shaam likhanaa
