Nakaam hayaat

Zindagi ko bahut uljhaya tha maine
Zamane ko bahut samjhaya tha maine
Her gardish ko nibhaya tha maine
lakin
Dil ki mahfil saj na saki
Tamanna ki kali khil na saki
Bade ehtimam se mahfil sajayee thee
Bade ehtram se shamma jalayee thee
Tere aane se tamanna ne jila payee thee
Magar
nazar se nazar mil na saki
Aur lab kusahie ho na saki
Saaz thak gaye ghungroo toot gaye
Raat dhal gayee chand taare soo gaye
Roone ko ham bus tanhaa hi rah gaye
Afsoos
Ehsas ko jila mil na saki
 Tashnagi  sairabi ban na saki
Lekin yeh kia
Unke bahut kareeb ja pahuncha tha main
Bus seene se unko laga baitha main
Sisakti zindagi ko hansa baitha main
Magar sad afsoos javed
Hayat mera saath de na saki
Aur zindagi do ghari hans na saki

Javed, bohot khoob likha hai...!!

I am moving it to Shayari-e-dard section, since I feel its more suitable for that section !
