Khayyam

Aj bichhade hain, kal ka dar bhi nahin
Zindagi itani mukhtasar bhi nahin

Zakhm dikhate nahin abhi lekin
Thhnde honge to dard nikalega
Taish utarega waqt ka jab bhi
Chehara andar se zard nikalega

Mere ghar ayi ek nanhi pari
Chaandani ke hasin rathape sawaar

Usaki baaton men shahad jaisi mithhaas
Usaki saanson men ittar ki mahakaar
Honthh jaise ke bhige bhige gulaab
Gaal jaise ke dahake dahake anaar

Kal ni konpale futengi kal ne ful muskaaenge
Aur ni ghaans ki ni farsh par ne paanw ithhalaaenge
Wo mere bich nahin ae, main unake bich men kyon aun
Unaki subah aur shaamon ka main ek bhi lamha kyon paaun

Ye kya jagah hai dosto, ye kaun sa dayaar hai
Had-e-nigaah tak jahaan, gubaar hi gubaar hai

Ye kis makaam par hayaat mujhako le ke a gayi
Na bas khushi pe hai jahaan, na gam pe ikhtiyaar hai

Chori chori koi aye
Chupake chupake, sabase chhupake
Khwaab ki de jaaye

In ankhon ki masti ke mastaane hazaaron hain
In ankhon se waabasta afasaane hazaaron hain

Ek tum hi nahin tanaha, ulfat men meri rusawa
Is shahar men tum jaise diwaanen hazaaron hain

Dil chij kya hai, ap meri jaan lijie
Bas ek baar mera kaha maan lijie

Is anjuman men apako ana hai baar baar
Diwaar-o-dar ko gaur se pahachaan lijie

Dekh lo aj hamako ji bharake
Koi ata nahin hai fir marake

Ho ge tum agarache saudaai
Dur pahunchegi meri rusawaai

Ao achchhi tarah se kar lo pyaar
Ke nikal jaae kuchh dilaka bukhaar

Ankhon men hamane apake sapane sajaaye hain
Palaken uthha ke apane jaadu jagaaye hain
Sapana bhi ap hi hain, hakikat bhi ap hain
Bas ap, ap, ap hi, mujh men samaaye hain

Justaju jisaki thi us ko to n paaya hamane
Is bahaane se magar dekh li duniya hamane

Tujhako rusawa n kiya, khud bhi pashemaan n hue
Ishk ki rasm ko is tarah nibhaaya hamane
