aaj pi lene de saaqi mujhe ji lene de — Waseem Barelvi

ham ye to nahin kahte ki ham tujh se baDe hain
lekin ye bahut hai ki tire saath khaDe hain

tahrir se varna miri kyaa ho nahin saktaa
ik tu hai jo lafzon mein adaa ho nahin saktaa

raat to vaqt ki paaband hai Dhal jaaegi
dekhnaa ye hai charaaghon kaa safar kitnaa hai

bhare makaan kaa bhi apnaa nasha hai kyaa jaane
sharaab-khaane mein raatein guzaarne vaalaa

shartein lagaai jaati nahin dosti ke saath
kiije mujhe qubul miri har kami ke saath

hamaare ghar kaa pataa puchhne se kyaa haasil
udaasiyon ki koi shahriyat nahin hoti

shor din ko nahin sone detaa
shab ko sannaaTaa jagaa detaa hai

har ek shaakh pe viraaniyaan musallat hain
badan-darakht bhi goyaa hai aashiyaan-e-shab

aisi duniyaa mein kab tak guzaaraa karein tum hi kah do ki kaise gavaaraa karein
raat mujh se miri bebasi ne kahaa bebasi ke liye ek taaza ghazal

rang aa jaate muTThi mein jugnu ban kar
khushbu kaa paikar hotaa to achchhaa thaa

aaj mujhe apni aankhon se us ke qurb ki khushbu aai
meri nazar se us ne shaayad apne-aap ko dekhaa hogaa

teri ik baat nikaali thi ki raat
kitne hi baaton ke pahlu nikle
