jis taraf uTh gai hain aahein hain — Akbar Allahabadi

leaderi chaaho to lafz-e-qaum hai mehmaan-navaaz
gap-navison ko aur ahl-e-mez ko raazi karo

dukhtar-e-raz ne uThaa rakkhi hai aafat sar par
khairiyat guzri ki angur ke beTaa na huaa

log kahte hain badaltaa hai zamaana sab ko
mard vo hain jo zamaane ko badal dete hain

shaikh apni rag ko kyaa karein reshe ko kyaa karein
mazhab ke jhagDe chhoDein to peshe ko kyaa karein

aashiqi kaa ho buraa us ne bigaaDe saare kaam
ham to ab mein rahe aghyaar ba ho gae

ham aisi kul kitaabein qaabil-e-zabti samajhte hain
ki jin ko paDh ke laDke baap ko khabti samajhte hain
