kyaa banaayaa hai buton ne mujh ko — Wazir Ali Saba Lakhnavi

tu apne paanv ki mehndi chhuDaa ke de ai mahr
falak ko chaahiye ghaaza rukh-e-qamar ke liye

na paDhaa yaar ne ahvaal-e-shikasta meraa
khat ke purze kiye baazu-e-kabutar toDaa

khaak mein mujh ko milaa ke vo sanam kahtaa hai
apne allaah se jaa kar miri fariyaad karo

paayaa hai is qadar sukhan-e-sakht ne rivaaj
punjabi baat karte hain pashtu zabaan mein

taair-e-aql ko maazur kahaa zaahid ne
par-e-parvaaz mein tasbih kaa Doraa baandhaa

ham rind-e-pareshaan hain maah-e-ramazaan hai
chamki hui in rozon mein vaaiz ki dukaan hai

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

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

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

main jis mein rah na sakaa ji-huzuriyon ke sabab
ye aadmi hai usi kaamyaab mausam kaa
