Maseehullah Khan Ataa
ham ko khudaa ne dil diyaa dil mein diyaa gudaaz-e-ishq
bakhshaa khudaa ne aap ko husn-e-karishma-saaz-e-ishq
roab-e-jamaal-e-yaar se kham hai sar-e-niyaaz-e-ishq
husn ki baargaah mein paDhte hain ham namaaz-e-ishq

Maseehullah Khan Ataa
aish-o-tarab se kaam na aaraam se gharaz
divaane ko na gardish-e-ayyaam se gharaz
ik dil thaa us ke paas vo pahle hi de diyaa
ab kyaa hai us ko aashiq-e-naakaam se gharaz

mujhe ik ik baras ik ik ghaDi maa'lum hoti hai
shab-e-furqat qayaamat se baDi maa'lum hoti hai
jhaDi ashkon ki moti ki laDi maa'lum hoti hai
nihaan aankhon mein hiire ki kani maa'lum hoti hai

dekhaa aTaa huaa jo gulon ko ghubaar mein
masruf hain ghaTaaein chaman ke nikhaar mein
itne hain daagh aa nahin sakte shumaar mein
til bhar ki bhi jagah na dil-e-daagh-daar mein

us ke milne ki kyaa karun surat
koi surat nazar nahin aati

mehrbaan kul jahaan hai pyaare

tu miraa dil hai jaan hai pyaare
