کچھ اشارے تھے جنہیں دنیا سمجھ بیٹھے تھے ہم — فراق گورکھپوری

Kuchh ishaare the jinhein duniya samajh baithe the hum

Kuchh ishaare the jinhein duniya samajh baithe the hum
Us nigah-e-aashna ko kya samajh baithe the hum
Rafta rafta ghair apni hi nazar mein ho gaye
Wah re ghaflat tujhe apna samajh baithe the hum
Hosh ki taufeeq bhi kab ahl-e-dil ko ho saki
Ishq mein apne ko deewana samajh baithe the hum
Parda-e-aazurdagi mein thi wo jaan-e-iltifat
Jis ada ko ranjish-e-be-ja samajh baithe the hum
Kya kahein ulfat mein raaz-e-be-hasi kyun kar khula
Har nazar ko teri dard-afza samajh baithe the hum
Be-niyazi ko teri paaya sarasar soz-o-dard
Tujh ko ek duniya se begana samajh baithe the hum
Inqilab pai ba pai har gardish-o-har daur mein
Is zameen-o-aasmaan ko kya samajh baithe the hum
Bhool baithi wo nigah-e-naaz ahd-e-dosti
Usko bhi apni tabiyat ka samajh baithe the hum
Saaf alag hum ko junoon-e-aashiqi ne kar diya
Khud ko tere dard ka parda samajh baithe the hum
Kaan bajte hain mohabbat ke sukoot-e-naaz ko
Dastaan ka khatm ho jaana samajh baithe the hum
Baaton baaton mein payam-e-marg bhi aa hi gaya
Un nigahon ko hayat-afza samajh baithe the hum
Ab nahin taab-e-sipas-e-husn is dil ko jise
Be-qarar-e-shikwa-e-be-ja samajh baithe the hum
Ek duniya dard ki tasveer nikli ishq ko
Kohkan aur Qais ka qissa samajh baithe the hum
Rafta rafta ishq maanoos-e-jahan hota chala
Khud ko tere hijr mein tanha samajh baithe the hum
Husn ko ek husn hi samjhe nahin aur aye Firaq!
Meharban na-meharban kya kya samajh baithe the hum
