Labon Pe Aa Gai Thi Ek Baat Harf-e-haq Ban Kar, Khabar Quotes

Labon pe aa gai thi ek baat harf-e-haq ban kar,
khabar ye faeli jahan mein ke zuban daraaz hain hum..

न जान नादाँ इन्हें शज़र-ए-गुलिस्ताँ
ये आशिक़ हैं रुसवाई के
मुददत से इज़्हार-ए-इक़रार की
उम्मीद -ए-इंतेज़ार में ..

Na ghubar mein na gulab mein mujhe dekhna
mere dard kee aab-o-taab mein mujhe dekhna
kisi dhun mein tum bhee jo bastiyon ko tyag dou
isee rah-e-khana-e-kharaab mein mujhe dekhna..

- Azeez Jehan (Ada Jafri)
modern-age First Lady of Urdu Poetry

Kitna pyaar diya usse par mila kuch bhi nahi
itni gehri chaahat ka haasil-o-hasool kuch bhi nahi

woh humse khafa the to jaan nikal gayi thi humaari
hum unse khafa hain to unko malaal kuch bhi nahi

is kadar dukh diye hain na jaane kis khata par
par hum bhi sabar kar gaye aur kiya sawaal kuch bhi nahi

uski khushi mein hansne waale khaas hain uske liye
dukh mein uske saath hum, humaari misaal kuch bhi nahi..

Hum ek umar se wakif hain ab na samjhao
Ke lutaf kya mere meharbaan sitam ke hain..

Aaj hum unko bewafa bata kar aaye hain
unke khaton ko paani mein baha kar aaye hain
koi nikaal kar padh na le unhein
iss liye paani mein bhi aag lagaa kar aaye hain..

Zakham itne gehre hain izhaar kya karein
hum khud nishana ban gaye hain waar kya karein
mar gaye hum magar khuli rahi aankhein
ab is se zyada unka intezaar kya karein..
