baad marne ke bhi armaan yahi hai ai dost — Nadir Shahjahanpuri

bhare rahte hain ashk aankhon mein har dam
miri har saans mein ab gham ki bu hai

tu hi vo phuul hai jo hai mahbub
patte patte kaa Daali Daali kaa

nang hai raaz-e-mohabbat kaa numaayaan honaa
mar bhi jaaun main agar tum na pareshaan honaa

rahmat-e-haq ko na kar maayus apne feal se
vo bhalaai mein nahin jo hai buraai mein mazaa

ham dil fidaa karein ki tasadduq-e-jigar karein
jo bhi kahein huzur vahi umr bhar karein

phuul khulte hi titli bhi aai
kyaa koi dosti puraani hai

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

ham to apnon se bhi begaana hue ulfat mein
tum jo ghairon se mile tum ko na ghairat aai

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain

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

mohabbat ne 'maail' kiyaa har kisi ko
kisi par kisi ko kisi par kisi ko
