lahad mein kyuun na jaaun munh chhupaae — Shad Azimabadi

jab kisi ne haal puchaa ro diyaa
chashm-e-tar tu ne to mujh ko kho diyaa

iid mein iid hui aish kaa saamaan dekhaa
dekh kar chaand jo munh aap kaa ai jaan dekhaa

naazuk thaa bahut kuchh dil meraa ai 'shaad' tahammul ho na sakaa
ik Thes lagi thi yuun hi si kiyaa jald ye shisha TuuT gayaa

talab karein bhi to kyaa shai talab karein ai 'shaad'
hamein to aap nahin apnaa muddaaa maalum

dekhaa kiye vo mast nigaahon se baar baar
jab tak sharaab aai kai daur ho gae

izhaar-e-muddaaa kaa iraada thaa aaj kuchh
tevar tumhaare dekh ke khaamosh ho gayaa
