yaan rakhna-haa-e-sina kudurat se hain phaTe — Mushafi Ghulam Hamdani

ham bhi ai jaan-e-man itne to nahin naakaara
kabhi kuchh kaam tu ham ko bhi to farmaayaa kar

jitnaa ki ye duniyaa mein hamein khvaar rakhe hai
itne to gunahgaar zamaane ke nahin ham

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa

lailaa chali thi haj ke liye jazb-e-ishq se
naaqa machal ke najd ki manzil mein rah gayaa

apni to is chaman mein nit umr yunhi guzri
yaan aashiyaan banaayaa vaan aashiyaan banaayaa

pichhaa kisi tarah ye miraa chhoDtaa nahin
haathon se ishq ke koi jaave kahaan nikal

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

main sahraa jaa ke qabr-e-hazrat-e-majnun ko dekhaa thaa
ziyaarat karte the aahu bagula tauf kartaa thaa

yaad karnaa har ghaDi tujh yaar kaa
hai vazifa mujh dil-e-bimaar kaa

phuul khulte hi titli bhi aai
kyaa koi dosti puraani hai

ham logon ko paani achchhaa lagtaa hai
ham logon ne miTTi pahni hui hai dost

utni der sameTun saare dukh tere
jitni der ai dost bikhar nahin jaataa main
