HazaaroN KHwahishaiN

This is what Ghalib has to say for his die hard love..
For people how have loved and lost but still have loved.....


HazaaroN KHwahishaiN 'eisee ke har KHwahish pe dam nikle
bohot nikle mere armaaN lekin fir bhee kam nikle

Nikalna KHuld se aadam ka sunte aayaiN haiN
Lekin bohot be_aabru hokar tere kooche se ham nikle

Huee is daur meiN mansoob mujhse baada_aashaamee
Fir aaya wo zamaana, jo jahaaN se jaam-e-jam nikle

Mohabbat meiN naheeN hai farq jeene aur marne kaa
Usee ko dekh kar jeete haiN jis kaafir pe dam nikle

Zara kar jor seene par ki teer-e-pursitam nikle
jo wo nikle to dil nikle, jo dil nikle to dam nikle

KHuda ke waaste parda na kaabe se uThaa zaalim
KaheeN 'eisa na ho yaaN bhee wohee kaafir sanam nikle

KahaaN maiKHaane ka darwaaza 'GHalib' aur kahaaN waaiz
Par itana jaante haiN kal wo jaata tha ke ham nikle
