The Great

Hum Ishq mein yaraan ke apne, deewana bane yun phirte the;
Raaton mein Riyaazi padte the, aur din ko padaya karte the.

Kuch hosh nahin tha khud ka bhi, ek aisa junoon-e-ishq hua;
Baarish main bheege-bheege bhi, hum milne jaya karte the.

Waise toh paidal chalne ka, kuch shauq bhi tha na majboori;
Par uske ghar ke raste ko, hum paidal napa karte the.

Jab aaya yom-e-paidaish, to ek ajab si uljhan thi,
Mahboob ko tohfa dene ko yaaron ka sahara takte the.

Is ishq ke jhanjhat main yaaro, hum ghar walon se door hue,
Jin ghar waalon ki har khwahish par, hum mar jaya karte the.
