aasifuddaula-e-marhum vo thaa shusta-mizaaj — Mushafi Ghulam Hamdani

qaatil tiri gali bhi badaun se kam nahin
jis ke qadam qadam pe mazaar-e-shahid hai

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

yuun hai Dalak badan ki us pairahan ki tah mein
surkhi badan ki jaise chhalke badan ki tah mein

lailaa chali thi haj ke liye jazb-e-ishq se
naaqa machal ke najd ki manzil mein rah gayaa

jangal mein Tesu phulaa aur baagh mein shagufa
fasl-e-bahaar aai mausam gayaa khizaan kaa

jitnaa ki ye duniyaa mein hamein khvaar rakhe hai
itne to gunahgaar zamaane ke nahin ham

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

kuchh phulon ki khaatir bhi kuchh phulon kaa
sab se achchhaa rang churaanaa paDtaa hai

sabza o gul kahaan se aae hain
abr kyaa chiiz hai havaa kyaa hai

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

sayyaad teraa ghar mujhe jannat sahi magar
jannat se bhi sivaa mujhe raahat chaman mein thi

main us gulshan kaa bulbul huun bahaar aane nahin paati
ki sayyaad aan kar meraa gulistaan mol lete hain
