baaqi hai dil mein shaikh ke hasrat gunaah ki — Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

'zauq' jo madrase ke bigDe hue hain mullaa
un ko mai-khaane mein le aao sanvar jaaeinge

ek aansu ne Duboyaa mujh ko un ki bazm mein
buund bhar paani se saari aabru paani hui

maalum jo hotaa hamein anjaam-e-mohabbat
lete na kabhi bhuul ke ham naam-e-mohabaat

behtar to hai yahi ki na duniyaa se dil lage
par kyaa karein jo kaam na be-dil-lagi chale

naaz hai gul ko nazaakat pe chaman mein ai 'zauq'
us ne dekhe hi nahin naaz-o-nazaakat vaale

in dinon garche dakan mein hai baDi qadr-e-sukhan
kaun jaae 'zauq' par dilli ki galiyaan chhoD kar

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

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

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

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

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

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein
