Qulzum ne kab mitayi kabhi pyaas kisi ki

Jazba nahin pur soz koi, ek aah ke muqabil

Tadapti hai tanha jab, aawaaz udaas kisi ki

Pareshan hai bashar aaj, masruf bhi usi men, per

Sarwat ne kab mitayi kabhi bharaas kisi ki

Ankh milayen to kaise ab tu hi bata, ‘sahil’

Gar misl e sumundur ho chashm yaas kisi ki

Dour peeri ka hai yaro batao jashn kya manayen hum

Ab lamhon ko nahin to kya barson ko sajayen hum

Roodad e zeest maujood hai ab dastaan e maazi men

Haal kaisa hai hamara ab kis kis ko batayen hum

Jab ja chuki hai andaleeb door chaman se bahot

Naghmaat tujhe, ai baghbaan, ab kya sunayen hum

Chashm num ja ba ja tujhe kya dikhlayen hum shaikh

Ashk to tujhe nazar aatey nahin, kya sailaab bulayen hum

Chaaron taraf hai hangaama jidhar bhi aap dekhiye

Deewanon ke jahan ko ab firasat kya samjhayen hum

Ranj o gham phaila hua hai dard dilon men sab ke aaj

Roothi hui bulbul ko ‘sahil’ ab ud kar Kaise bulayen hum

Vaise, sunta hai kaun baat kisi ki aaj

Jee li ho zindagi gar pur surur, phir

Pas e urooj us ka zawaal na kijiye

Haq sab ka hai pura sahi khayalon per

Vaaiz mian, mazeed sawaal na kijiye

Saadagi men inkisaari bharpoor hai zurur

Akad, tunnuk partau, istemaal na kijiye

Ghalat na hoga kehna tehreer meri hai saada

Aasaan zaban ka ‘ sahil’ zawaal na kijiye

Na maano baat hamari na sahi koi baat nahin

Dil apne ki baat na maano tab manmaani hogi

Tohfa e khaas dena ho vaada e imaandaari do

Deegar is ke jo bhi dogey woh be imaani hogi

Shab o roz hain kis liye samajhna yeh zururi hai

Guzrenge din aaraam se aur raat bhi suhaani hogi

Aatey hain maikade men rind, tujhse milnne woh nahin

Aane ki vajh jaan le saqi, phir shaam bhi mastaani hogi

Sochta hun main kabhi kabhi maajra kya hai, haal kya

Sambhlegi kab duniya yaro, zahanat kab chaukanni hogi

Dil muqaddas milte hain jab chand sitaarey takte hain

Mulaqat woh visaal ki bas paak aur ruhaani hogi

Muqarrar sab ke shab o roz is per to hai bahas nahin

Khaak hai tu, ai faani insan, usi men javidaani hogi

Dil ne jiske haar na maani, salaam usey muqaddar ka

Hairaan hogi duniya ‘sahil’, qismat bhi deewaani hogi

Ma’bad mein milta hai sukun zar ki deewaron se nahin

Gar shauq ho parwaaz  ka, bulandi haasil to sitaron  se nahin

Ban kar Shirin zubaan ke malik, har su barsao phool

Man ke andherey mit te hain per angaaron se nahin

Pyaar muhabbat unsiyat yeh khel hai zindagi ka

Milta hai chain dilon ko per mazaaron se nahin

Fizaon ka hawaon ka maza lijiye magar

Dil behlayiega zurur per ghubaron se nahin

Sar nigoon na ho kabhi siwa khuda ke aage

Sajde kijiye zurur per chand sitaron se nahin

Ajab hai yeh baat dosto  ajab hai yeh kitni

Ke banti hai shabnam ashkon se baharon se nahin

Hayat ki ho agar baat ‘sahil’ to samajh lena tum

Duaon se hoti hai umr daraaz , dhadkanon se nahin

Jab bhi  tapke asnsu apne, yaad aaya phir shabaab hamen

Woh mah o anjum, subh ki shabnam, guzre kal ke baab hamen

Tifli ke woh beetey din, jab dagmagaatey they qadam

Roothey aur woh hanste pal, yaad aaye woh ahbaab hamen

Bahaar hi bahaar thi, nishan khizan ke they nahin

Gul aur hum they pur sukun, miley na behtar asbaab hamen

Miley dars shabaab men un buzurgon se tab aise

Hum samjhe maani hayat ke, na tang kiye saraab hamen

Zamana hi kuch aisa tha, woh baradari thi fizaon men

Miley tab be saakhta, sab sawalon ke jawab hamen

Maula ho jab nakhuda har kashti e safar ka

Phir fikr kya talatum ki, miley jo miley sawaab hamen

Nikle yeh alfaaz ‘sahil’ baha kar aaansu aab ke

Soch gar karnI padti paar, nadi lahu ke sailaab hamen

Kasa ba dast yaani maal e muzi hai

‘Sahil’, do roti milen to bahot kaafi hai

Zindagi jab khud hi aani jaani hai

Phir, saraab hai kuch to javidaani hai

Batao, kaun nahin hai gunahgaar yahan

Paheli hai kuchh to jazba e talaafi hai

Kuch tum ne kaha kuch main ne suna

Haqeeqat bhi to mahz ek kahani hai

Maikade men rind they saqi, jaane kaunsa jaam kis ka tha

Itni matlabi hai dunya aaj, dil men kuch zubaan per kuch

Jhukey sab ma’bad men lekin, jaane rab ko salaam kis ka tha

Kabhi takte they mil kar hum, darakhshaan un sitaron ko

Kabhi unsiyat thi aisi ke, jaane kausa baam kis ka tha

Ranjishen baant lijiye aaraam o sukoon ke malik banogey

Pursish hogi aapass men, naqsh e pa woh gaam kis ka tha

Daagh daaman per kis ke nahin, ba safa yahan kaun hai

Munsif, mujrim hi mujrim hain sab, mujh per ilzaam kis ka tha

‘Sahil’, insaniyat hi to rishta hai, nafraton ka kaam kya

Lafz e ulfat roz e azal se, yeh paighaam kis ka tha

Chaman men saman se milwaye koi

Naghme bulbul ke sunwaye koi

Sehr ki kirnon ka fayeda kya

Jab har subh aa kar jagaaye koi

Zulm sitam ka haqeer hai bahot

Kaash, kisi ko na kabhi sataye koi

Hangama ba pa hai khuda ke jahan men

Ab usi ko ja kar manaye koi

Andheron ki baaten kyon karneen ‘sahil’

Gar zulmat men raasta dikhlaye koi
