di hai 'nayyar' mujh ko saaqi ne ye kaisi khaas mai — Nayyar Sultanpuri

pahunchaa na thaa yaqin ki manzil pe main abhi
meraa khayaal mujh se bhi aage nikal gayaa

siine pe kitne daagh liye phir rahaa huun main
zakhmon kaa ek baagh liye phir rahaa huun main

baDhne lagi yaqin o gumaan mein jo kashmakash
vaada bhi subh o shaam pe Taltaa chalaa gayaa

na tum hosh mein ho na ham hosh mein hain
chalo mai-kade mein vahin baat hogi

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

ham be-khudaan-e-mahfil-e-tasvir ab gae
aainda ham se aap mein aayaa na jaaegaa

anjaam ko pahunchungaa main anjaam se pahle
khud meri kahaani bhi sunaaegaa koi aur

aankh tumhaari mast bhi hai aur masti kaa paimaana bhi
ek chhalakte saaghar mein mai bhi hai aur mai-khaana bhi

nashsha thaa zindagi kaa sharaabon se tez-tar
ham gir paDe to maut uThaa le gai hamein
