Tashwish

mujh ko tashwish hai kuchh roz se mere mahbub

mere andaz-e-tafakkur ki ye pur-KHar rawish

teri hassas tabiat ko na kar de majruh

aur tu samjhe ki nahin tujh mein wo pahli si kashish

ab bhi jalwon mein hai taKHliq-e-mohabbat ki sakat

teri baaton mein abhi tak hai fusun ka andaz

aariz o lab pe tabassum ka KHiram-e-madhosh

ab bhi deta hai taKHayyul ko payam-e-parwaz

phir bhi ehsas-e-masarrat ka na ho zehn ko hosh

gin to sakta hun, shab-e-hijr mein taron ko magar

zehn aawara KHayalat se bhar jata hai

ashk-e-majbur bahaun gham-e-jaanan mein magar

silsila mere in ashkon ka bikhar jata hai

mujh ko tashwish hai kuchh roz se mere mahbub

mere andaz-e-takallum ki ye begana-rawi

teri hassas tabiat ko na kar de majruh

aur taskin na ho phir husn-e-KHud-ara ko kabhi
