ai mohabbat tere anjaam pe ronaa aayaa


ai mohabbat tere anjaam pe ronaa aayaa
jaane kyo.n aaj tere naam pe ronaa aayaa

yuu.N to har shaam ummiido.n me.n guzar jaatii thii
aaj kuchh baat hai jo shaam pe ronaa aayaa

kabhii taqdiir kaa maatam kabhii duniyaaa kaa gilaa
manzil-e-ishq me.n har gaam pe ronaa aayaa

[gaam=step]

jab huaa zikr zamaane me.n mohabbat kaa 'Shakeel'
mujh ko apane dil-e-naakaam pe ronaa aayaa

-- Shakeel Badayuni
