main nazar se pi rahaa huun ye samaan badal na jaae — Anwar Mirzapuri

ai kaash hamaari qismat mein aisi bhi koi shaam aa jaae
ik chaand falak par niklaa ho ik chaand sar-e-baam aa jaae

mire ashk bhi hain is mein ye sharaab ubal na jaae
miraa jaam chhune vaale tiraa haath jal na jaae

mujhe phunkne se pahle miraa dil nikaal lenaa
ye kisi ki hai amaanat mire saath jal na jaae

abhi raat kuchh hai baaqi na uThaa naqaab saaqi
tiraa rind girte girte kahin phir sambhal na jaae

akelaa paa ke mujh ko yaad un ki aa to jaati hai
magar phir lauT kar jaati nahin main kaise so jaaun

main khush huun agar gulshan ke liye kuchh meraa lahu kaam aa jaae
lekin mujh ko Dar hai is kaa gulchin pe na ilzaam aa jaae

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

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

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

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein

vo puchhte hain dil-e-mubtalaa kaa haal aur ham
javaab mein faqat aansu bahaae jaate hain
