is adaa se vo jafaa karte hain — Dagh Dehlvi

hazrat-e-'daagh' hai ye kucha-e-qaatil uThiye
jis jagah baiThte hain aap to jam jaate hain

dil hi to hai na aae kyuun dam hi to hai na jaae kyuun
ham ko khudaa jo sabr de tujh saa hasin banaae kyuun

baad muddat ke ye ai 'daagh' samajh mein aayaa
vahi daanaa hai kahaa jis ne na maanaa dil kaa

na ronaa hai tariqe kaa na hansnaa hai saliqe kaa
pareshaani mein koi kaam ji se ho nahin saktaa

sar miraa kaaT ke pachhtaaiyegaa
jhuTi phir kis ki qasam khaaiyegaa

kal tak to aashnaa the magar aaj ghair ho
do din mein ye mizaaj hai aage ki khair ho

tu jafaaon se jo badnaam kiye jaataa hai
yaad aaegi tujhe meri vafaa mere baad

phir usi bevafaa pe marte hain
phir vahi zindagi hamaari hai

hain yaadgaar-e-aalam-e-faani ye donon chiiz
us ki jafaa aur apni vafaa likh rakheinge ham

jafaa se unhon ne diyaa dil pe daagh
mukammal vafaa ki sanad ho gai

aa umr-e-rafta hashr ke dam-kham bhi dekh lein
tufaan-e-zindagi ki vo halchal uThaa to laa

'ehsaan' aisaa talkh javaab-e-vafaa milaa
ham is ke baa'd phir koi armaan na kar sake
