chirag mangte rehne ka kuch sabab bhi nahen

chirag mangte rehne ka kuch sabab bhi nahen
andhera kese bitayen ke ab to shab bhi nahen
mein apne zaam mein ek bazyaft par khush hon
ye waqia hai ke mujh ko mila wo ab bhi nahen
jo mere shair mein mujh se ziyada bolta hai
mein os ki bazm mein ek harf zair lab bhi nahen
aur ab to zindagi karne ke sau tareeqe hain
hum os ke hijr mein tanha rahe thay jab bhi nahen
kamal shakhs tha jis ne mujhe tabha kiya
khilaf os ke ye dil ho saka hai ab bhi nahen
ye dastaken ye meri zindagi ki adhi raat
hawa ka shor samajh lon to kuch ajab bhi nahen
ye dukh nahen ke andheron se sulah ki hum ne
malal ye hai ke ab subha ki talab bhi nahen
hisab dur badari tujh se mang sakta hai
gareeb shahar magar itna be adab bhi nahen
hamen bohat hai ye saadat-e-ishq ki nisbat
ke ye qabeela koii aisa kam nasab bhi nahen
