ilaahi kashti-e-dil bah rahi hai kis samundar mein — Asar Sahbai

tumhaari yaad mein duniyaa ko huun bhulaae hue
tumhaare dard ko siine se huun lagaae hue

ye husn-e-dil-fareb ye aalam shabaab kaa
goyaa chhalak rahaa hai piyaala sharaab kaa

tere shabaab ne kiyaa mujh ko junun se aashnaa
mere junun ne bhar diye rang tiri shabaab mein

jis husn ki hai chashm-e-tamannaa ko justuju
vo aaftaab mein hai na hai maahtaab mein

saari duniyaa se be-niyaazi hai
vaah ai mast-e-naaz kyaa kahnaa

aah kyaa kyaa aarzuein nazr-e-hirmaan ho gaiin
roiye kis kis ko aur kis kis kaa maatam kijiye

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

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

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

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