kaaba kaa aur khaana-e-dil kaa ye haal hai — Meer Kallu Arsh

kyaa ghair kyaa aziiz koi nauhagar na ho
ai jaan yuun nikal ki badan tak khabar na ho

chashm-e-baatin mein se jab zaahir kaa parda uTh gayaa
jo musalmaan thaa vahi hindu nazar aayaa mujhe

kyaa diyaa bosa lab-e-shirin kaa ho kar tursh-ru
munh huaa miThaa to kyaa dil apnaa khaTTaa ho gayaa

gale mein apne pahnaa hai jo tu ne ai but-e-kaafir
miri tasbih ko hai rashk zunnaar-e-barahman par

hasrat-e-did mein aakhir ko dam apnaa ulTaa
parda-e-chashm na us shokh ne apnaa ulTaa

nazar kisi ko vo mu-e-kamar nahin aataa
ba-rang-e-taar-e-nazar hai nazar nahin aataa

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

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

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

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