haakim-e-ishq ne jab aql ki taqsir suni — Siraj Aurangabadi

dekhaa hai jis ne yaar ke rukhsaar ki taraf
hargiz na jaave sair kuun gulzaar ki taraf

boltaa huun jo vo bulaataa hai
tan ke pinjre mein us kaa totaa huun

vaqt hai ab namaaz-e-maghrib kaa
chaand rukh lab shafaq hai gesu shaam

tahqiq ki nazar siin aakhir kuun ham ne dekhaa
akasr hain maal vaale kam hain kamaal vaale

masjid vahshat mein paDhtaa hai taraavih-e-junun
mushaf husn-e-pari-rukhsaar jis kuun yaad hai

vo ajab ghaDi thi main jis ghaDi liyaa dars nuskha-e-ishq kaa
ki kitaab aql ki taaq par juun dhari thi tyuun hi dhari rahi

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

husn aur ishq hain donon kaafir
donon mein ik jhagDaa saa hai

ham bhi kisi shirin ke liye khaana-badar the
farhaad rah-e-ishq mein tanhaa to na niklaa

tujh se kuchh aur ta'alluq bhi zaruri hai miraa
ye mohabbat to kisi vaqt bhi mar sakti hai

suraagh-e-mehr-o-mohabbat kaa DhunDiyo na kahin
ki un ki raakh havaa mein bikher aayaa main
