donoon ko aa sakeen na nibhaani, muhabaatain

[Wounded Healer]

donoon ko aa sakeen na nibhaani, muhabaatain
ab parrh raheen hain hum ko bhulaani, muhabbatain

sab sar-basar faraib hain kiya in ka aitbaar
yeh pyar, husn, ishq, jawani, muhabbatain

kin ki rafaqatoon ke diye waastay magar
us ko na yaad aayein puraani, muhabbatain

guzri rutoon ke zakhm hii ab tak bharay nahee
phir aur kya kisi se barrhaani, muhabbatain

janey woh aaj kaun se rastay se aaye ghar
har morr, har gali mein bichaani, muhabbatain

ya dil ki haalatoon ka bayaan sab ke saamnay
ya apne aap se bhi chupaani, muhabbatain

nafrat ke waastay kabhi fursat nahee milee
hai apni mukhtasir si kahaani, muhabbatain ........

[Rabia Basri]

Zindagi ki rahoon mein hum tou tanha chalte hein
sath jo bhi chalte hein sath chor jatey hein............
jam wo muhabat ka pyar se pilate hen
phir bhi unkahi si ik pyas chor jate hen
