Khushboo

Mohabbat ek khushboo hai hamesha saathh rahti hai

Koi insaan tanhaai mein tanha nahin rahta

Khushboo kisiki yaad ki phir paas aayee hai

Mahka hua hai aaj mera ghar ka ghar tamaam

Dil se yaadon ki khushboo na nikli kabhi

Main khizan mein bhi aksar mahakta raha

Bas gayee hai mere ehsaas mein kuchh aisi mahak

Koi khushboo main lagaoon teri khushboo aaye

Dil ka har gosha munawwar hai haseen yaadon se

Meri season mein abhi tak hai tumhari khushboo

Khushboo ki tarah jeena bhi aasaan to nahin

Phoolon se qtra qatra nichora gaya mujhe

Who to khushboo hai fizaaon mein bikhar jaayega

Sochna phool ka hai phool kidhar jayega

Who qurb ke lamhat agar bhool bhi jaayen

Barson hamen tarpaayegi ehsaas ki khushboo

Mit gaye merei umeedon ki tarah harf magar

Aaj tak tere khatoot se teri khushboo na gayee

Mahsoos to karta hoon magar chhoo nahin sakta

Tu phool nahin phool ki khushboo ki tarah hai

Sab yeh kahten hain laga rakhi hai khushboo maine

Unki yaadon se mahakta hoon koi kya jaane

Ab tak wahan udte hain khushboo ke qaafle

Bhoole se jahan rakh diya aap ne qadam

Paate hain kuchh gulab chatanon mein parvarish

Aati hai pattharon se bhi khushboo kabhi

Ajnabi

Apnon ki chaahaton ne bhi kyaa kya diye fareb

Rote rahe lipat ke har ek ajnabi se hum

Kabhi aziz thhe hum jinko zindagi ki tarah

Abhi qareeb se guzre hain ajnabi ki tarah

Kiya thha pyar jise hum ne zindagi ki tarah

Wo aashna bhi mila hum se ajnabi ki tarah

Hazaron log hain is bheed mein pahchan mushkil hai

Shanaasa kis ko samjhoon aur kisko ajnabi samjhoon

Hote hote ho gaya dil is qadar maanoos-e-gham

Ajnabi maaloom hota hai khushi ka naam bhi

Bhari mahfil mein khud ko ajnabi mahsoos karte hain

Batayen kya kisi ko kya kami mahsoos karte hain

Apne to bhool jaate hain apnon se kya gila

Ek ajnabi ko apna pata de ke dekhiye

Kyon ajnabi sa aaj hamen apna ghar lage

Yeh kya hua ke apne hi saaye se dar lage

Wo ajnabi thha phir bhi bahut toot ke mila

Tohfe mein saadgi ki ada de gaya mujhe

Jahaan bhooli hui yaad aake daaman thhaam le dil ka

Wahaan se ajnabi ban kar guzar jaana hi achchhaa hai

Ajnabi kaun ho tum jab se tumhen dekha hai

Saari duniya meri aankhon mein simat aayee hai

Milne ko woh mile hain magar ban ke ajnabi

Kuchch aise haadse bhi hamen pesh aaye hain

Chand tasviir-e-butaa.N chand hasiino.n ke Khatuut

baad marane ke mre ghar se ye saamaa.N nikalaa

                                    -Mirza Ghalib

Ham un kii tasviir dil me.n chhipaaye baiThe hai.n

Viiraan zindagii me.n ek gul khilaaye baiThe hai.n

Muddato.n pahale jab tujh se taarruf bhii na thaa

Terii tasviir banaate the Khayaalat mere

Aap ne tasviir bhejii mai.n ne dekhii Gaur se

har adaa achchhii Khaamoshii kii adaa achchhii nahii.n

                                    -Jaleel Manikpuri

Terii suurat se nahii.n milatii kisii kii suurat

ham jahaa.N me.n terii tasviir liye phirate hai.n

                                    -Nasikh

Lab-e-Khaamosh se izhaar-e-tamanna chaahe

Gark hone ko bhii tasviir kaa lahajaa chaahe

Tasviir banaata huu.N tasviir nahii.n banatii

ek Kavaab saa dekhaa hai taabiir nahii.n banatii

                                    -Khumar Barabankvi

Tasviir terii dil meraa bahalaa na sakegii

ye terii tarah mujh se yuu.n sharamaa na sakegii

Mohabbaton Ka Safar

Safar me.n dhuup to hogii jo chal sako to chalo

Sabhii hai.n bhii.D me.n tum bhii nikal sako to chalo

Idhar udhar ka_ii ma.nzil hai.n chal sako to chalo

Bane banaaye hai.n saa.Nche jo Dhal sako to chalo

Kisii ke vaaste raahe. N kahaa. N badalatti hai. N

Tum apane aap ko Khud hii badal sako to chalo

-Nida Fazli

Safar me.n raah ke aashob se na Dar jaanaa

Pa.De jo aag kaa dariyaa to paar kar jaanaa

Safar-e-manzil-e-shub yaad nahii.n

Log ruKhsat huye kab yaad nahii.n

                                                -Nasir Kazmi

Raah chalate log kyaa samajhe.n merii majabuuriyaa.N

                                                -Sardar Anjum

Chal mere saath hii chal ai meril jaan-e-Ghazal

In samaajo.n. ke banaaye huye ba.ndhan se nikal, chal

Ham cahaa. N jaaye jahaa. N pyaar pe pahare na lage.n

Dil kii daulat pe jahaa.N ko_ii luTere na lage.N

Kab hai badalla ye zamaanaa, tuu zamaane ko badal, chal

-Hasrat Jaipuri

Chalate ho to chaman ko chaliye

Kahatae hai.n ki bahaaraa.N hai

pvious Poetry:

Ankhon ka Maajra

Aankh se aankh mila baat banata kyun hai

Tu agar mujh se khafa hai to chhupata kyon hai

                                                Saeed Rahi

Nazar mein dhal ke ubharte hain dil ke afsane

Yeh aur baat hai duniya nazar na pahchane

                                                Sufi Ghulam Mustafa

Aankhon men jii meraa hai idhar yaar dekhna

Aashiq kaa apne aakhri deedaar dekhna

                                                Meer Taqi Meer

Aankh jab band kiya karte hain

Saamne aap huaa karte hain

                                                Saeed Raahi

Aankhon mein jal raha hai kyun bujhta naheen dhuaan

Uthta to hai ghataa saa barastaa nahin dhuaan

                                                Gulzar

Aankh se aankh milaata hai koi

Dil ko kheenche liye jaata hai koi

                                                Shakeel Badayuni

Aankh padtii hai kaheen paaon kaheen padte hain

Sab ki hai unko khabar apni khabar kuchch bhi naheen

                                                Alam Taab Tashna

Aankh ko jam samajh baitha thaa anjaane men

Saaqiya hosh kahaan thhaa tere diivaane men

                                                Shamim Shahabadi

Aankhon men bas ke dil men samaa kar chale gaye

Khvaabidaa zindagi thii jagaa kar chale gaye

                                                Jigar Moraadabadi

Nazar nazar se milaakar sharaab piite hain

Ham unko paas bithaakar sharaab piite hain
