jabin par khaak hai ye kis ke dar ki — Mubarak Azimabadi

dil lagaate hi to kah deti hain aankhein sab kuchh
aise kaamon ke bhi aaghaaz kahin chhupte hain

kuchh is andaaz se sayyaad ne aazaad kiyaa
jo chale chhuT ke qafas se vo giraftaar chale

tiri adaa ki qasam hai tiri adaa ke sivaa
pasand aur kisi ki hamein adaa na hui

tum ko samjhaae 'mubaarak' koi kyunkar afsos
tum to rone lage yaar aur bhi samjhaane se

miri khaak bhi uDegi baa-adab tiri gali mein
tire aastaan se unchaa na miraa ghubaar hogaa

rahne de apni bandagi zaahid
be-mohabbat khudaa nahin miltaa
