Aawargi by Mohsin Naqavi

Bade wasooq se duniya fareb deti hai

bade khuloos se hum aitbaar karte hain”

yeh dil yeh pagal dil mera, kyon bujh gaya aawargi

is dasht mein ik shahar tha, vo kya hua aawargi

kal shab mujhe be-shakl si aawaaz ne chaunka diya

main ne kaha tu kaun hai, usne kahaa aawargi

ek tuu ke sadiyon se mere, humraah bhi humraaz bhi

ek mein kii tere naam se, na-aashana aawaragi

ye dard kii tanahaaiyaa ye dasht kaa viiraa.n safar

ham log to uktaa gaye apnii sunaa, aavaargii

ik ajnabi jhonke ne jab, pucha mere gam ka sabab

sehra ki bheegi ret par, main ne likha aawargi

kal raat tanha chand ko, dekha tha main ne khwab main

“mohsin” mujhay rass ayegi, shayad sada aawargi
