mat bakht-e-khufta par mire hans ai raqib tu — Meer Hasan

na gharaz mujh ko hai kaafir se na din-daar se kaam
roz-o-shab hai mujhe us kaakul-e-khamdaar se kaam

mat ponchh abru-e-araq-aalud haath se
laazim hai ehtiyaat ki hai aab-daar tegh

taaki ibrat karein aur ghair na dekhein tujh ko
ji mein aataa hai nikalvaaiye do-chaar ki aankh

guzri hai raat mujh mein aur dil mein turfa sohbat
idhar to main ne ki aah udhar se vo karaahaa

kaabe ko gayaa chhoD ke kyuun dil ko tu ai shaikh
Tuk ji mein samajhtaa to sahi yaan bhi to rab thaa

furqat ki shab mein aaj ki phir kyaa jalaaveinge
dil kaa diyaa thaa ek so kal hi jalaa diyaa

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

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi

yaa rab hamein to khvaab mein bhi mat dikhaaiyo
ye mahshar-e-khayaal ki duniyaa kahein jise

hijr-e-jaanaan ke alam mein ham farishte ban gae
dhyaan muddat se chhuTaa aab-o-taaam-o-khvaab kaa

ab jis dil-e-khvaabida ki khulti nahin aankhein
raaton ko sirhaane mire bedaar yahi thaa

raat aati hai to taaqon mein jalaate hain charaagh
khvaab zinda hain so aankhon mein jalaate hain charaagh
