rozi-rasaan khudaa hai fikr-e-maaash mat kar — Meer Mohammadi Bedar

nahin kuchh abr hi shaagird meri ashk-baari kaa
sabaq leti hai mujh se barq bhi aa be-qaraari kaa

kis tarah haal-e-dil kahun us gul se baagh mein
phirti hai us ke saath to har-dam sabaa lagi

junun ne dast-kaari aisi bhi ki
na thaa goyaa garebaan pairahan mein

ayaan hai shakl tiri yuun hamaare siina se
ki juun sharaab numaayaan ho aabgina se

saaye se apne vahshat karte hain misl-e-aahu
mushkil hai haath lagnaa az-khud ramidgaan kaa

jaataa hai chalaa qaafila-e-ashk shab o roz
maalum nahin us kaa iraada hai kahaan kaa

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

jinhein ye fikr nahin sar rahe rahe na rahe
vo sach hi kahte hain jab bolne pe aate hain

miri baaton se ab aazurda na honaa saaqi
is ghaDi aql miri mujh se judaa phirti hai

koi dariyaa ki taraf jaane ko tayyaar nahin
haath sab ke hain magar koi 'alam-daar nahin

vo aql-mand kabhi josh mein nahin aataa
gale to lagtaa hai aaghosh mein nahin aataa

azaab-e-daanish-e-haazir se baa-khabar huun main
ki main is aag mein Daalaa gayaa huun misl-e-khalil
