dildaar ki gali mein mukarrar gae hain ham — Abroo Shah Mubarak

jaltaa hai ab talak tiri zulfon ke rashk se
har-chand ho gayaa hai chaman kaa charaagh gul

gham siin ahl-e-bait ke ji to tiraa kuDhtaa nahin
yuun abas paDhtaa phiraa jo marsiya to kyaa huaa

kyaa sabab tere badan ke garm hone kaa sajan
aashiqon mein kaun jaltaa thaa gale kis ke lagaa

yuun 'aabru' banaave dil mein hazaar baatein
jab ru-ba-ru ho tere guftaar bhuul jaave

namkin goyaa kabaab hain phike sharaab ke
bosaa hai tujh labaan kaa maze-daar chaTpaTaa

afsos hai ki bakht hamaaraa ulaT gayaa
aataa to thaa pe dekh ke ham kuun palaT gayaa

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

botalein khol kar to pi barson
aaj dil khol kar bhi pi jaae

vo gulaabi baadalon mein ek niili jhiil si
hosh qaaem kaise rahte thaa hi kuchh aisaa libaas

kunj-e-hairat se chale dasht-e-ziyaan tak laae
kaun laa saktaa hai ham dil ko jahaan tak laae

tum ne kyuun dil mein jagah di hai buton ko 'saabir'
tum ne kyuun kaaba ko but-khaana banaa rakkhaa hai
