kaam hai merā taġhayyur naam hai merā shabāb — Shayari Of Josh Malihabadi

kashtī-e-mai ko hukm-e-ravānī bhī bhej do
jab aag bhej dī hai to paanī bhī bhej do

vo kareñ bhī to kin alfāz meñ terā shikva
jin ko terī nigah-e-lutf ne barbād kiyā

insān ke lahū ko piyo izn-e-ām hai
añgūr kī sharāb kā piinā harām hai

guzar rahā hai idhar se to muskurātā jā
charāġh-e-majlis-e-rūhāniyāñ jalātā jā

fuġhāñ ki mujh ġharīb ko hayāt kā ye hukm hai
samajh har ek raaz ko magar fareb khaa.e jā

is dil meñ tire husn kī vo jalvagarī hai
jo dekhe hai kahtā hai ki shīshe meñ parī hai

Dil dhoondta hai phir wahi fursat-e-shab-o-roz
Naaz uthana, naaz uthana, naaz uthana

justujū kho.e huoñ kī umr bhar karte rahe
chāñd ke hamrāh ham har shab safar karte rahe

dil meñ na ho jur.at to mohabbat nahīñ miltī
ḳhairāt meñ itnī baḌī daulat nahīñ miltī

kab Thahregā dard ai dil kab raat basar hogī
sunte the vo ā.eñge sunte the sahar hogī

hijr kī rātoñ meñ lāzim hai bayān-e-zulf-e-yār
niiñd to jaatī rahī hai qissa-ḳhvānī kījiye

raat yuuñ dil meñ tirī khoī huī yaad aa.ī
jaise vīrāne meñ chupke se bahār aa jaa.e
