POiSON WORLD

ishq mujhko naheeN, wehshat hee sahee..

meree wehshat, teree shohrat hee sahee..

qata’a keeje na ta’alluq ham se..

kuchch naheeN hai to adaavat hee sahee..

mere hone meiN hai kya ruswaaee..

ei woh majlis naheeN KHalwat hee sahee..

ham bhee dushman to naheeN haiN apne..

GHair ko tujh se mohabbat hee sahee..

apnee hastee hee se ho, jo kuchch ho..

aagahee gar naheeN GHaflat hee sahee..

umr harchand ke hai barq-e-KHiraam..

dil ke KHooN karne ki fursat hee sahee..

ham koee tarq-e-wafa karte haiN..

na sahee ishq, museebat hee sahee..

kuchch to de ‘ei falak-e-na_insaaf..

aah-o-fariyaad ki ruKHasat hee sahee..

ham bhee tasleem kee KHoo Daalenge..

be_niyaazee teree ` aadat hee sahe..

yaar se cheDa chalee jaay, ‘Asad’..

gar nahee wasl to hasrat hee sahee..

(You say) It is not love, it is madness

My madness may be the cause of your fame

Sever not my relationship with you

If nothing then be my enemy

What is the meaning of notoriety in meeting me

If not in public court meet me alone

I am not my own enemy

So what if the stranger is in love with you

Whatever you are, it is due to your own being

If this not known then it is ignorance

Life though fleets like a lightening flash

Yet it is abundant Time to be in love

I do not want debate on the sustenance of love

Be it not love but another dilemma

Give something O biased One

At least the sanction to cry and plea

I will perpetuate the rituals

Even if cruelty be your habit

Teasing and cajoling the beloved cannot leave ‘Asad‘

Even if there is no union and only the desire remains
