mat bakht-e-khufta par mire hans ai raqib tu — Meer Hasan

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

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

kaabe ko gayaa chhoD ke kyuun dil ko tu ai shaikh
Tuk ji mein samajhtaa to sahi yaan bhi to rab thaa

furqat ki shab mein aaj ki phir kyaa jalaaveinge
dil kaa diyaa thaa ek so kal hi jalaa diyaa

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

balaa-e-jaan thi jo bazm-e-tamaashaa chhoD di main ne
khushaa ai zindagi khvaabon ki duniyaa chhoD di main ne

hasin khvaab ko sachchaa samajh rahaa hai koi
faqat gumaan ko duniyaa samajh rahaa hai koi

vaqt-be-vaqt baDi duur chalaa jaataa huun
chand TuuTe hue khvaabon kaa sahaaraa le kar

kahaani likhte hue daastaan sunaate hue
vo so gayaa hai mujhe khvaab se jagaate hue

dekhte kuchh hain dikhaate hamein kuchh hain ki yahaan
koi rishta hi nahin khvaab kaa taabir ke saath
