tiraa khayaal mire dil mein kaise ghar kartaa — Nazeer Azad

zarra zarra karbalaa manzar-ba-manzar tishnagi
apne hisse mein to aai hai saraasar tishnagi

aabaad hai is dil kaa jahaan jis ke qadam se
vo mujh ko pukaare hai kisi aur jahaan se

kyaa milaa juz sukut-e-be-paayaan
shor siine mein kaarvaan bhar thaa

daastaan-go thaa kisi baab se niklaa hogaa
vo jo kahtaa thaa ki divaar mein dar miltaa hai

tujh mein gar baarish samundar ke baraabar hai to kyaa
mere andar bhi hai sahraa ke baraabar tishnagi

aankh bhar ishq aur badan bhar chaah
shukr lab bhar gila zabaan bhar thaa

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

aa mere saath baiTh mire saath chaae pi
aa mere saath mere dalaail pe baat kar

nizaam-e-mai-kada saaqi badalne ki zarurat hai
hazaaron hain safein jin mein na mai aai na jaam aayaa

vaa'da amir-e-shahr kaa dariyaa-dili kaa thaa
dekh un kaa faiz shahr ko dariyaa banaa diyaa

duur ham se hain vo to kyaa Dar hai
paas hai apne aarsi dil ki
