diin kyon ki na vo daagh-e-alam aur ziyaada — Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

'zauq' jo madrase ke bigDe hue hain mullaa
un ko mai-khaane mein le aao sanvar jaaeinge

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

ek aansu ne Duboyaa mujh ko un ki bazm mein
buund bhar paani se saari aabru paani hui

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

maalum jo hotaa hamein anjaam-e-mohabbat
lete na kabhi bhuul ke ham naam-e-mohabaat

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

behtar to hai yahi ki na duniyaa se dil lage
par kyaa karein jo kaam na be-dil-lagi chale

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

naaz hai gul ko nazaakat pe chaman mein ai 'zauq'
us ne dekhe hi nahin naaz-o-nazaakat vaale

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

in dinon garche dakan mein hai baDi qadr-e-sukhan
kaun jaae 'zauq' par dilli ki galiyaan chhoD kar

— Shaikh Ibrahim Zauq

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

— Mirza Mohammad Hadi Aziz Lakhnavi

mere khvaabon ke jharokon ko sajaate rahiye
na sahi vasl magar yaad to aate rahiye

— Jatinder Vir Yakhmi Jayaveer

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

— Ahmad Faraz

koi viraani si viraani hai
dasht ko dekh ke ghar yaad aayaa

— Mirza Ghalib

un ki yaad mein bahte aansu khushk agar ho jaaeinge
saat samundar apni khaali aaankhon mein bhar laaungaa

— Sadiq

is judaai mein tum andar se bikhar jaaoge
kisi maazur ko dekhoge to yaad aaungaa

— Wasi Shah
