Thokar bhi raah-e-ishq mein khaani zarur hai — Dagh Dehlvi

hazrat-e-'daagh' hai ye kucha-e-qaatil uThiye
jis jagah baiThte hain aap to jam jaate hain

dil hi to hai na aae kyuun dam hi to hai na jaae kyuun
ham ko khudaa jo sabr de tujh saa hasin banaae kyuun

baad muddat ke ye ai 'daagh' samajh mein aayaa
vahi daanaa hai kahaa jis ne na maanaa dil kaa

na ronaa hai tariqe kaa na hansnaa hai saliqe kaa
pareshaani mein koi kaam ji se ho nahin saktaa

sar miraa kaaT ke pachhtaaiyegaa
jhuTi phir kis ki qasam khaaiyegaa

kal tak to aashnaa the magar aaj ghair ho
do din mein ye mizaaj hai aage ki khair ho

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

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

karo kaj jabin pe sar-e-kafan mire qaatilon ko gumaan na ho
ki ghurur-e-ishq kaa baankpan pas-e-marg ham ne bhulaa diyaa

ab ki jo raah-e-mohabbat mein uThaai taklif
sakht hoti hamein manzil kabhi aisi to na thi

tikhe to ho pa sach kaho us vaqt kyaa karo
tum ko gale lagaa le agar pyaar se koi

Thahri thi ghizaa apni jo gham ishq-e-butaan mein
so aah hamaari hamein khuraak ne khaayaa
