Yun Bhi Dil Ahbab Ke Humne Gahe Gahe Rakkhe The

yun bhi dil ahbab ke hum ne gahe gahe rakkhe the

apne zaKHm-e-nazar par KHush-fahmi ke phahe rakkhe the

hum ne tazad-e-dahr ko samjha do-rahe tartib diye

aur baratne nikle to dekha sah-rahe rakkhe the

raqs-kada ho bazm-e-suKHan ho koi kargah-e-fan ho

zardozon ne apni ma-tahti mein julahe rakkhe the

mohtasibon ki KHatir bhi apne izhaar mein kuchh pahlu

rakh to liye the hum ne ab chahe an-chahe rakkhe the

jo wajh-e-rahat bhi na the aur TuT gae to gham na hua

aah wo rishte kyun hum ne ek umr nibahe rakkhe the

kahkashan-bandi mein suKHan ki rah gai 'saz' kasar kaisi

lafz to hum ne chun ke najume mohre mahe rakkhe the
