kashti-e-e'tibaar toD ke dekh — Fani Badayuni

na ibtidaa ki khabar hai na intihaa maalum
rahaa ye vahm ki ham hain so vo bhi kyaa maalum

apni jannat mujhe dikhlaa na sakaa tu vaaiz
kucha-e-yaar mein chal dekh le jannat meri

ham hain us ke khayaal ki tasvir
jis ki tasvir hai khayaal apnaa

rone ke bhi aadaab huaa karte hain 'faani'
ye us ki gali hai teraa gham-khaana nahin hai

mujh tak us mahfil mein phir jaam-e-sharaab aane ko hai
umr-e-rafta palTi aati hai shabaab aane ko hai

yaa-rab tiri rahmat se maayus nahin 'faani'
lekin tiri rahmat ki taakhir ko kyaa kahiye
