shaeri kawish-e-paiham ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin

shaeri kawish-e-paiham ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin
aur is kawish-e-paiham ka sila kuchh bhi nahin
zar-paraston ko to ab khauf-e-khuda kuchh bhi nahin
pas-e-din pas-e-adab pas-e-wafa kuchh bhi nahin


roz-o-shab aatish-e-jazbaat mein jalte rahna
aashiqi soz-e-musalsal ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin
kaun ye ruh ko aawaz diye jata hai
hama-tan-gosh hun main aur sada kuchh bhi nahin


aap bhi hon mere hamrah to kuchh baat bane
warna in chandni raaton ka maza kuchh bhi nahin
zindagi hi mein gunahon ki saza milti hai
hashr kuchh chiz nahin roz-e-jaza kuchh bhi nahin


daur-e-hazir ki shariat mein rawa hai sab kuchh
narawa kuchh bhi nahin aur bura kuchh bhi nahin
kya kaha waqt-e-musibat koi kaam aaega
aap ko fitrat-e-insan ka pata kuchh bhi nahin


aazmaya hai bahut apnon ko beganon ko
mujh ko ab ahl-e-zamana se gila kuchh bhi nahin
gham mila ranj mila tum ko mohabbat mein 'bahaar'
phir bhi kahte ho mohabbat mein dhara kuchh bhi nahin
