Sahir Ludhianvi

Chha ge baadal nil gagan par
Ghul gaya kajara saanjh dhale

Dekh ke mera man bechain
Rain se pahale ho gi rain
Aj hriday ke swapn fale
Ghul gaya kajara saanjh dhale

Sakhi ri mera man ulajhe, tan dole
Ab chain pade tab hi jab un se milan ho le

Laakh jatan karun dhyaan bnte na, ye rasawnti rain kate na
Pawan agan si ghole, ab chain pade ...

Snsaar se bhaage firate ho, bhagawaan ko tum kya paaoge
Is lok ko bhi apana n sake, us lok men bhi pachhataaoge

Main jindagi ka saath nibhaata chala gaya
Har fikr ko dhunen men udaata chala gaya

Barbaadiyon ka sog manaana fijul tha
Barbaadiyon ka jashn manaata chala gaya

Tera mujh se hai pahale ka naata koi
Yun hi nahin dil lubhaata koi
Jaane tu ya jaane na
Maane tu ya maane na

Zindagi bhar nahin bhulegi wo barasaat ki raat
Ek anjaan hasina se mulaakaat ki raat

Haaye wo reshami julfonse barasata paani
Ful se gaalon pe rukane ko tarasata paani
Dil men tufaan uthhaate huye, jajbaat ki raat

Jurm-e-ulft pe hamen log saja dete hain
Kaise naadaan hain, sholon ko hawa dete hain

Hamase diwaane kahi tark-e-wafa karate hain
Jaan jaae ki rahe baat nibha dete hain

Kaun aya ki nigaahon men chamak jaag uthhi
Dil ke soe hue taaron men khanak jaag uthhi

Kisake ane ki khabar leke hawaaen ai
Jism se ful chatakane ki sadaaen ai
Ruh khilane lagi, saanson men mahak jaag uthhi

Jiwan ke safr men raahi
Milate hain bichhad jaane ko
Aur de jaate hain yaaden
Tanahaai men tadpaane ko

Aj ki raat piya dil na todo
Man ki baat piya maan lo

Dil ki kahaani, apani jubaani, tumako sunaane ai hun
Ankhon men le ke sapane suhaane, apana banaane ai hun
Chhod ke saath piya munh na modo, man ki baat ...
