kisi ke ishq mein ye kaam karna chahte hain

kisi ke 'ishq mein ye kaam karna chahte hain
hum aasman pe ab panw dharna chahte hain
simatna chahti hai raat meri aankhon mein
sitare mere badan mein utarna chahte hain


hamein to ras na aaya ye intishaar apna
zara samet len khud ko to marna chahte hain
nikal ke dekh zara hujra-e-taghaful se
teri gali se musafir guzarna chahte hain


jinhen kisi ki nigahon ne bandh rakkha tha
ab us tilism ke lamhe bikharna chahte hain
bhatak rahe hain in aankhon ke shahr mein kab se
sara-e-khwab mein ek din thaharna chahte hain
