phuul khulte hi titli bhi aai — Nadir Shahjahanpuri

tu hi vo phuul hai jo hai mahbub
patte patte kaa Daali Daali kaa

nang hai raaz-e-mohabbat kaa numaayaan honaa
mar bhi jaaun main agar tum na pareshaan honaa

rahmat-e-haq ko na kar maayus apne feal se
vo bhalaai mein nahin jo hai buraai mein mazaa

ham dil fidaa karein ki tasadduq-e-jigar karein
jo bhi kahein huzur vahi umr bhar karein

matlab kaa zamaana hai 'naadir' koi kyaa degaa
mujh sokhta-e-qismat ko degaa to khudaa degaa

bhare rahte hain ashk aankhon mein har dam
miri har saans mein ab gham ki bu hai

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

aql kahti hai dobaara aazmaanaa jahl hai
dil ye kahtaa hai fareb-e-dost khaate jaaiye

ye vaqt kaifiyaat se bhartaa nahin kabhi
ye jaam ikhtiyaar nahin kar rahaa huun main

zindagi sundar ghazal hai dosto
zindagi ko gungunaanaa chaahiye

saadgi o purkaari be-khudi o hushyaari
husn ko taghaaful mein jurat-aazmaa paayaa

vo habib ho ki rahbar vo raqib ho ki rahzan
jo dayaar-e-dil se guzre use ham-kalaam kar lo
