laala-ruyon se kab faraagh rahaa — Rind Lakhnavi

maut aa jaae qaid mein sayyaad
aarzu ho agar rihaai ki

ham jo kahte hain saraasar hai ghalat
sab bajaa aap jo farmaaiyegaa

kaafir huun na phunkun jo tire kaabe mein ai shaikh
naaqus baghal mein hai musallaa na samajhnaa

mai pilaa aisi ki saaqi na rahe hosh mujhe
ek saaghar se do aalam hon faraamosh mujhe

mai-kash huun vo ki puchhtaa huun uTh ke hashr mein
kyuun ji sharaab ki hain dukaanein yahaan kahin

agari kaa hai gumaan shak hai malaagiri kaa
rang laayaa hai dupaTTa tiraa mailaa ho kar

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai
