Ajal hoti rahegi ishq kar ke multawi kab tak

ajal hoti rahegi ishq kar ke multawi kab tak
muqaddar mein hai ya rab aarzu-e-KHud-kushi kab tak

taDapne par hamare aap rokenge hansi kab tak
ye mathe ki shikan kab tak ye abru ki kaji kab tak

kiran phuTi ufuq par aaftab-e-subh-e-mahshar ki
sunae jao apni dastan-e-zindagi kab tak

dayar-e-ishq mein ek qalb-e-sozan chhoD aae the
jalai thi jo hum ne shama raste mein jali kab tak

jo tum parda uTha dete to aankhen band ho jatin
tajalli samne aati to duniya dekhti kab tak

tah-e-girdab ki bhi fikr kar ai Dubne wale
nazar aati rahegi sahilon ki raushni kab tak

kabhi to zindagi KHud bhi ilaj-e-zindagi karti
ajal karti rahe darman-e-dard-e-zindagi kab tak

wo din nazdik hain jab aadmi shaitan se khelega
khilauna ban ke shaitan ka rahega aadmi kab tak

kabhi to ye fasad-e-zehn ki diwar TuTegi
are aaKHir ye farq-e-KHwajgi-o-bandagi kab tak

dayar-e-ishq mein pahchanne wale nahin milte
ilahi main rahun apne watan mein ajnabi kab tak

muKHatab kar ke apne dil ko kahna ho to kuchh kahiye
'saba' us bewafa ke aasare par shairi kab tak
