zindagii kaa dard lekar inqalaab aayaa to kyaa - Shakeel Badayuni

zindagii kaa dard lekar inqalaab aayaa to kyaa

ek joshiidaa pe gurbat men shabaab aayaa to kyaa

ab to aankhon par gam-e-hastii ke parde pad gaye

ab koii husn-e-mujassim benaqaab aayaa to kyaa

khud chale aate to shaayad baat ban jaatii koii

baad tark-e-aashiqii khat kaa jawaab aayaa to kyaa

muddaton bichhade rahe phir bhii gale to mil liye

ham ko sharm aayii to kyaa un ko hijaab aayaa to kyaa

ek tajallii se munawwar kiijiye qatl-e-hayaat

har tajallii par dil-e-khaanaakharaab aayaa to kyaa

matalaa-e-hastii kii saazish dekhate ham bhii 'shakiil'

ham ko jab niind aa gayii phir maahataab aayaa to kyaa
