ulfat mein tiri ai but-e-be-mehr-o-mohabbat — Baqaullah 'Baqa'

ishq mein bu hai kibriyaai ki
aashiqi jis ne ki khudaai ki

bulbul se kahaa gul ne kar tark mulaaqaatein
ghunche ne girah baandhin jo gul ne kahin baatein

ishq ne mansab likhe jis din miri taqdir mein
daagh ki naqadi mili sahraa milaa jaagir mein

chhoD kar kucha-e-mai-khaana taraf masjid ke
main to divaana nahin huun jo chalun hosh ki raah

is bazm mein puchhe na koi mujh se ki kyaa huun
jo shisha gire sang pe main us ki sadaa huun

kal ke din jo gird mai-khaane ke phirte the kharaab
aaj masjid mein jo dekhaa saahab-e-sajjaada hain

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

aatish-e-ishq vo jahannam hai
jis mein firdaus ke nazaare hain

mohabbat karne vaale dard mein tanhaa nahin hote
jo ruThoge kabhi mujh se to apnaa dil dukhaaoge

jo tire ishq mein tabaah huaa
koi us ko tabaah kar na sakaa

tere shaidaa bhi hue ishq-e-tamaashaa bhi hue
tere divaane tire shahr mein rusvaa bhi hue
