Hijr Ki Pehli Shaam Ke Saaye Door Ufaq Tak Chhaaye Thay

Qateel Shifai Poetry

Hijr Ki Pehli Shaam Ke Saaye Door Ufaq Tak Chhaaye Thay
Ham Jab Os Ke Seher Se Niklay Sab Raastay Saath Laye Thay

Jaanay Wo Kia Soch Raha Tha Apne Dil Mein Saari Raat
Pyaar Ki Baatain Kartay Kartay Os Ke Nain Bhar Aaye Thay

Mere Andar Chali Thi Aandhi Theek Osi Din Pat Jharr Ki
Jis Din Apne Jorray Mein Os Ne Kuch Phool Sajaaye Thay

Os Ne Kitnay Pyaar Se Apna Kufar Dia Nazraanay Mein
Ham Apne Emaan Ka Sodaa Jis Se Karnay Aaye Thay

Kaisay Jati Mere Badan Se Beetay Lamhon Ki Khushbuu
Khwaabon Ki Is Basti Mein Kuch Phool Mere Hamsaaye Thay

Kaisa Pyaara Manzar Tha Jab Dekh Ke Apne Saathi Ko
Pairr Pe Bethi Ek Chirrya Ne Apne Per Phailaaye Thay

Rukhsat Ke Din Bheegi Aankhon Os Ka Wo Kehna Haye “Qateel”
Tum Ko Lout Hee Jana Tha Tou Is Nagri Mein Kiun Aaye Thay

Yeh mojza bhi muhabbat kabhi dikhaye mujhe..

Qateel Shifai Poetry

Yeh mojza bhi muhabbat kabhi dikhaye mujhe..
Kay sang tujh pe girain aur zakham aye mujhe..

Main ghar se teri tamanna jub pehan k niklun..
Barhana shehr main koe nazar na aye mujhe..

Wo mera dost hai saray jahan ko hai maloom..
Dagha karay wo kisi se to sharm aye mujhe..

Wo mehrbaan hai to iqraar kyu nahi kerta..
Wo bdguman hai to so bar azmaye mujhe..

Main apni zaat main neelam horaha hun QATEEL,
Gham-e-hayaat se keh do k kharid laye mujhe..

Tere mehndi lage hathon pe mera naam likha hai..

Qateel Shifai Poetry

Tere mehndi lage hathon pe mera naam likha hai,
Zara se lafzz main kitna paighaam likha hai,

Yeh teri shaan ke shayaa’n nahin lekin majboori,
Teri masti bhari ankhon ko mene jaam likha hai,

Main shayar hoon, magar agey na barh paya riwayat se,
Labon ko pankhrri*, zulfon ko mene shaam likha hai,

Mujhe maut aaye gi jab bhi tere pehluu main ayegi,
Tere gham ne bohat acha mera anjaam likha hai,

Meri qismat mein hai ik din griftaar-e-wafaa hona,
Mere chehre pe tere pyaar ka ilzaam likha hai,

Qateel ik khubsurat buut* hai, main jis ka pujaari* hoon,
Mere mazhab ke khaaney mein magar Islam likha hai..

Teri khushbuu meri saanson main basaaney aye.

Qateel Shifai Poetry

Teri khushbuu meri saanson main basaaney aye,
Dil ki dunya mein baharon ke zamaney aaye,

Yeh alag baat hai ke tabeer na de sath mera,
Khawb to jitne bhi aaye woh suhaaney aye,

Woh hai maghroor magar pyar se majboor bhi,
Khud hi naraaz kare khud hi mananey aaye,

Kyon tarss aya hai us ko meri tanhai par,
Woh mujhe meri nazar se na giraaney aye,

Woh bataye na mujhe apne bicharne ka sabab,
Us se keh do woh mera dil na jalaney aye,

Pyaar kya hota hai ab tak mujhe maloom na tha,
Chott khayi to mere hosh thikaaney aye,

Jo mera dil bhi sajaa de mere chehre pe Qateel,
Woh mussawar* meri tasveer bananey aye..

Be’chain umangon ko behlaa ke chale jana,

Jo aag lagi dil main, woh sard na ho jaye,
Bhujte huye sholo’n ko bharrkaa ke chale jana,

Ujrri nazar ati hai jazbaar ki haryaali,
Tum us pe koi baadal barsaa ke chale jana,

Furqat ki aziyaat mein, kuch sabar bhi laazim hai,
Yeh baat mere dil ko samjhaa ke chale jana,

Shayed ke behel jaye, deewana Qateel Is se,
Tum koi neya vaada farmaa ke chale jana..

Woh baddan aik hi mar’mar se taraashey jis ne,
Main ne paaya usi fankaar ka shaahkar tujhe,

Shayed ab chup na sake raaz-e-mohabbat mera,
Main ne chup reh ke sadaa di hai kayi baar tujhe..
