gin rahaa huun harf un ke ahd ke — Aziz Hyderabadi

vo ye kah kar daagh dete hain mujhe
phuul se pahle samar aate nahin

mushkil hai imtiyaaz-e-azaab-o-savaab mein
piitaa huun main sharaab milaa kar gulaab mein

koi rusvaa koi saudaai hai
ik jahaan aap kaa shaidaai hai

zor qismat pe chal nahin saktaa
khaamushi ikhtiyaar kartaa huun

us ne sun kar baat meri Taal di
uljhanon mein aur uljhan Daal di

ayaan yaa nihaan ik nazar dekh lete
kisi surat un ko magar dekh lete

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

sab ko ham bhuul gae josh-e-junun mein lekin
ik tiri yaad thi aisi jo bhulaai na gai

masal sach hai bashar ki qadar neamat baa'd hoti hai
sunaa hai aaj tak ham ko bahut vo yaad karte hain

bayaabaan-e-junun mein shaam-e-ghurbat jab sataayaa ki
mujhe rah rah kar ai subh-e-vatan tu yaad aayaa ki

ek saaghar bhi inaayat na huaa yaad rahe
saaqiyaa jaate hain mahfil tiri aabaad rahe

tujhe khabar hai ki ibtidaa bhi hai intihaa bhi
jahaan-e-maani mein darmiyaan ko bhi yaad rakhnaa
