kaar-e-din yaa fikr-e-duniyaa kijiye — Naseem Dehlvi

harfon ke mile joD baDhaa husn raqam kaa
har lafz ke paivand mein bakhiya hai qalam kaa

tasadduq hone vaale pis na jaaein
uThaae haath se daaman ko chaliye

allaah re taraddud-e-khaatir ki kasratein
tuuda banaa diyaa mujhe gard-e-malaal kaa

husn-e-barahnagi ke uThaate baDe maze
hotaa na ruuh ko jo libaas-e-badan hijaab

ek se do daagh do se chaar phir to saikDon
khilte khilte phuul siine par gulistaan ho gayaa

matlab hai miraa aariz-e-pur-nur kaa jalva
aashiq huun tiraa naam ko banda huun khudaa kaa

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

umr hi teri guzar jaaegi un ke hal mein
teraa bachcha jo savaalaat liye baiThaa hai

idhar to tuul diyaa hai umiid ko us ne
udhar hayaat ataa ki hai mukhtasar mujh ko

meri saari zindagi ko be-samar us ne kiyaa
umr meri thi magar us ko basar us ne kiyaa

jiinaa taDap taDap kar marnaa sisak sisak kar
fariyaad ek ji hai kyaa kyaa kharaabiyon mein

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai
