karte hain arbab-e-dil andaza-e-josh-e-bahar — Abbas Ali Khan Bekhud

"halat ke taghayyur par ho matam-e-mazi kyuun ik vo bhi zamana tha ik ye bhi zamana hai"

"hamari na-umidi ka to hai ilzam qismat par tumhara mudda.a hota to manzur-e-khuda hota hota"

"azal se sokhta-saman huun fikr-e-ashiyan kya ho na girti barq to ye soz-e-dil se jal gaya hota"

"kisi se ishq karna aur is ko ba-khabar karna hai apne matlab-e-dushvar ko dushvar-tar karna"

"tavajjoh chara-gar ki ba.is-e-taklif hai 'bekhud' izafa hai musibat men davaon ka asar karna"

"in buton ne mujh ko be-khud kis qadar dhoke diye sidha-sada jaan kar mard-e-musalman dekh kar"
