is ko ummid nahin hai kabhi phir basne ke — Meer Hasan

rakhkhun kahaan main apne pari-zaad ko 'hasan'
shisha jo ek dil kaa mire hai so chuur hai

mat ponchh abru-e-araq-aalud haath se
laazim hai ehtiyaat ki hai aab-daar tegh

taaki ibrat karein aur ghair na dekhein tujh ko
ji mein aataa hai nikalvaaiye do-chaar ki aankh

guzri hai raat mujh mein aur dil mein turfa sohbat
idhar to main ne ki aah udhar se vo karaahaa

mat bakht-e-khufta par mire hans ai raqib tu
hogaa tire nasib bhi ye khvaab dekhnaa

na gharaz mujh ko hai kaafir se na din-daar se kaam
roz-o-shab hai mujhe us kaakul-e-khamdaar se kaam

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

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

main badalte hue haalaat mein Dhal jaataa huun
dekhne vaale adaakaar samajhte hain mujhe
