ek do tiin chaar paanch chhe saat — Sakhi Lakhnvi

na aashiq hain zamaane mein na maashuq
idhar ham rah gae hain aur udhar aap

baat karne mein honT laDte hain
aise takraar kaa khudaa-haafiz

dard ko gurda taDapne ko jigar
hijr mein sab hain magar dil to nahin

dafn ham ho chuke to kahte hain
is gunahgaar kaa khudaa-haafiz

mire laashe ko kaandhaa de ke bole
chalo turbat mein ab tum ko sulaaein

ham un se aaj kaa shikva kareinge
ukhaaDeinge vo barson ki gaDi baat

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe

maarka garm to ho lene do khun-rezi kaa
pahle shamshir ke niche hamin jaa baiTheinge
