qusur kya hai jo humse KHataen hoti hain

qusur kya hai jo hum se khataen hoti hain
huzur aap ki qatil adaen hoti hain
barasna aata nahin un ko hai yahi rona
falak pe roz hi kali ghataen hoti hain


gunah-e-ishq to aankhon ka mashghala thahra
ye kya sitam hai ki dil ko sazaen hoti hain
zara si ot agar le sako to achchha hai
diye ki tak mein shatir hawaen hoti hain


hamare pas bhala kya hai aur dene ko
tumhaare waste dil mein duaen hoti hain
tujhe bhi saikdon samman mil gae hote
‘akela’ tujh se kahan iltijaen hoti hain
