gulshan-e-ishq kaa tamaashaa dekh — Munawar Khan Ghafil

sitaare gum hue khurshid niklaa
araq jab yaar ne ponchhaa jabin se

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

apne majnun ki zaraa dekh to be-parvaai
pairahan chaak hai aur fikr silaane ki nahin

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

kucha-e-jaanaan mein yaaro kaun suntaa hai miri
mujh se vaan phirte hain laakhon daad aur be-daad mein

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

kaun dariyaa-e-mohabbat se utar saktaa hai paar
kashti-e-farhaad aakhir koh se Takraa gai

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

baad marne ke miri qabr pe aayaa 'ghaafil'
yaad aai mire iisaa ko davaa mere baad

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

vasl mein bhi nahin majaal-e-sukhan
is rasaai pe naa-rasaa hain ham

— Munawar Khan Ghafil

bil-aakhir thak haar ke yaaro ham ne bhi taslim kiyaa
apni zaat se ishq hai sachchaa baaqi sab afsaane hain

— Ibn

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

— Mirza Mohammad Hadi Aziz Lakhnavi

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

— Saleem Amrohvi

na paak hogaa kabhi husn o ishq kaa jhagDaa
vo qissa hai ye ki jis kaa koi gavaah nahin

— Haidar Ali Aatish

nahin vo sham-e-mohabbat rahi to phir 'aasim'
ye kis duaa se mire ghar mein raushni si hai

— Asim Wasti

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa

— Mushafi Ghulam Hamdani
