chalaa hai kaabe ko but-khaane se 'razaa' yaaro — Raza Azimabadi

khushaa ho kar butaan kab aashiqon ko yaad karte hain
'razaa' hairaan huun main kis baat par hai utnaa bholaa tu

sunte to the 'razaa' hain sab hain baDe musalmaan
par kufr mein ziyaada nikle vo barahman se

dekhi thi ek raat tiri zulf khvaab mein
phir jab talak jiyaa main pareshaan hi rahaa

imaarat dair o masjid ki bani hai iinT o patthar se
dil-e-viraana ki kis chiiz se taamir hoti hai

kaabe mein shaikh mujh ko samjhe zalil lekin
sau shukr mai-kade mein hai e'tibaar apnaa

ik dam ke vaaste na kiyaa kyaa kyaa ai 'razaa'
dekhaa chhupaayaa toDaa banaayaa kahaa sunaa

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

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

barseingi aaj rahmatein aamad hai yaar ki
naayaab hain ye ghaDiyaan tire intizaar ki

jo ghair the vo isi baat par hamaare hue
ki ham se dost bahut be-khabar hamaare hue

raaz-e-nihaan zabaan-e-aghyaar tak na pahunchaa
kyaa ek bhi hamaaraa khat yaar tak na pahunchaa

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi
