حیا نہیں ہے زمانے کی آنکھ میں باقی

خدا کرے کہ جوانی تری رہے بے داغ

My great grandfather’s library 🤍✨

Teri har baat mohabbat mein gavara kar ke,

Dil ke bazar mein baithe hain khasara kar ke.

Aate jaate hain kai rang mere chehre par,

Log lete hain maza zikr tumhara kar ke.

Ek chingari nazar aai thi basti mein use,

Wo alag hat gaya andhi ko ishara kar ke.

Asmanon ki taraf phenk diya hai main ne,

chand mitti ke charaghon ko sitara kar ke.

Main wo dariya hun ki har bund bhanvar hai jis ki,

Tum ne achcha hi kiya mujh se kinara kar ke,

Muntazir hun ki sitaron ki zara aankh lage,

chand ko chhat pe bula lunga ishara kar ke.

RAHAT INDORI

mujh ko yaqeen hai sach kahti thi jo bhi ammi kehti thi

jab mere bachpan ke din the chand men pariyan rahti thi

ek ye din jab apnon ne bhi ham se naata tod liya

ek vo din jab ped ki shakhen bojh hamara sahti thi

ek ye din jab saari sadkein ruthi ruthi lagti hai

ek vo din jab aao khelein saari galiyan kahti thi

ek ye din jab jaagi raaten divaron ko takti hai

ek vo din jab shamon ko bhi palken bojhal rahti thi

ek ye din jab zehn men saari avari ki baaten hai

ek vo din jab dil mein bholi-bhali baatein rahti thi

ek ye din jab lakhon gham aur kaal pada hai aansu ka

ek vo din jab ek zara si baat pe nadiyan bahti thin

ek ye ghar jis ghar men mere saz-o-saman rahta hai

ek vo ghar jis ghar men meri buddhi naani rahti thi

—Javed Akhtar

Koi shaam to yun aye

Ki teri yaad nhi

Tu khud aaye

Wo ittefaq se raaste mein mil jaaye kahi,

Bas isi shauq ne hamein aawaara bana diya.....

When Ahmad Faraz said :

Ah ko chahiye ek umar asar hony tk

Kon jeeta he teri zulf k sar hony tak.

It is all about the delay they make in telling what the other is dying to hear. 🫀
