yahin ke thi mohabbat ke sabaq

yahin ke thi mohabbat ke sabaq ke ibtada main ne,
yahin ke jurrat-e-izhar-e-harf-e-mudd’a main ne,,

yahin dekhe the ishv-e-naz-o-andaz-e-haya main ne,

yahin pahale suni thi dil dhadakane ke sada main ne,,

yahin kheton mein pani ke kinare yaad hai ab bhi,
dilon mein izdaham-e-arazu lab band rehte the,,

nazar se guftagu hoti thi dam ulfat ka bharate the,
na mathe par shikan hoti, na jab tevar badalate the,,

khuda bhi muskura deta tha jab hum pyar karte the,
yahin kheton mein pani ke kinare yaad hai ab bhi,,

wo kya aata ke goya daur mein jam-e-sharab aata,
wo kya aata rangili ragani rangin rabab aata,,

mujhe ranginiyon mein rangane wo rangin sahab aata,
labon ke mein pilane jhumata mast-e-shabab aata,,


yahin kheton mein pani ke kinaro yaad hai ab bhi,
haya ke bojh se jab har qadam par lagazishen hotin,,

fazan mein muntasar rangin badan ke larazishen hotin,
rabab-e-dil ke taron mein musalasil jumbishen hotin,,

khifa-e-raz ke purlutf baham koshishen hotin,
yahin kheton mein pani ke kinare yaad hai ab bhi,,


bala-e-fikr-e-farda hum se koson dur hoti thi,
surur-e-sarmadi se zindagi mamur hoti thi,,

hamari khilwat-e-masum rashq-e-tur hoti thi,
malak jhula jhulate the gazal-khwan hur hoti thi,,

yahin kheton mein pani ke kinare yaad hai ab bhi,
na ab wo khet baqi hain na wo aab-e-rawan baqi,,
magar us aish-e-rafta ka hai ik dhundala nishan baqi ...
