ahvaal dekh kar miri chashm-e-pur-aab kaa — Joshish Azimabadi

gulzaar-e-mohabbat mein na phule na phale ham
maanind-e-chinaar aag mein apni hi jale ham

chhup-chhup ke dekhte ho bahut us ko har kahin
hogaa ghazab jo paD gai us ki nazar kahin

dhyaan mein us ke fanaa ho kar koi munh dekh le
dil vo aaina nahin jo har koi munh dekh le

us ke rukhsaar par kahaan hai zulf
shola-e-husn kaa dhuaan hai zulf

kis tarah tujh se mulaaqaat mayassar hove
ye duaa-go tiraa ne zor na zar rakhtaa hai

chashm-e-vahdat se gar koi dekhe
but-parasti bhi haq-parasti hai

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

ham mein baaqi nahin ab khaalid-e-jaan-baaz kaa rang
dil pe ghaalib hai faqat hafiz-e-shiraaz kaa rang

dil ki taklif kam nahin karte
ab koi shikva ham nahin karte

ashk Dhalte nahin dekhe jaate
dil pighalte nahin dekhe jaate

ye do-dili mein rahaa ghar na ghaaT kaa 'anjum'
buton ko kar na sakaa khush khudaa ko paa na sakaa
