ai nasim-e-sahari bu-e-mohabbat le aa — Siraj Aurangabadi

dekhaa hai jis ne yaar ke rukhsaar ki taraf
hargiz na jaave sair kuun gulzaar ki taraf

boltaa huun jo vo bulaataa hai
tan ke pinjre mein us kaa totaa huun

vaqt hai ab namaaz-e-maghrib kaa
chaand rukh lab shafaq hai gesu shaam

tahqiq ki nazar siin aakhir kuun ham ne dekhaa
akasr hain maal vaale kam hain kamaal vaale

masjid vahshat mein paDhtaa hai taraavih-e-junun
mushaf husn-e-pari-rukhsaar jis kuun yaad hai

vo ajab ghaDi thi main jis ghaDi liyaa dars nuskha-e-ishq kaa
ki kitaab aql ki taaq par juun dhari thi tyuun hi dhari rahi

sabhi se jab mohabbat chaahte ho
mohabbat kyon nahin karte sabhi se

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

khudaa! sila de duaa kaa, mohabbaton ke khudaa
khudaa! kisi ne kisi ke liye duaa ki thi

suno ki ab ham gulaab deinge gulaab leinge
mohabbaton mein koi khasaara nahin chalegaa

tujhe main ghaur se dekhun main tujh se pyaar karun
ai mere but tu mire but-kadon se baahar aa

shaam pyaari shaam us par bhi koi dar khol de
shaakh par baiThi hui hai ek beghar faakhta
