Kamzarf Ashiq

By Navira Khan

The poem below illustrates how people who depart often make false promises at first, only to leave

and find happiness with someone else later.

Kamzarf Ashiq

Kahete toh the tere bin din nahi kathta

Phir aaj yeh chehra kyun khila hua hai

Kahete toh the teri awaaz mera sukoon hai

Phir aaj yeh sukoon kaha se mayassar hua hai

Kahete toh the tujhe apna banana hai

Phir aaj yeh kisko apna banaya hua hai

Kahete toh the k tu hamsafar hai mera

Phir aaj yeh rasta kyun badla hua hai

Kahete toh the teri adaaon pe yeh dil qurban

Toh phir aaj yeh dil kaha laga hua hai
