zaraa dekho ye sarkash zarra-e-khaak — Siraj Lakhnavi

sajda-e-ishq pe tanqid na kar ai vaaiz
dekh maathe pe abhi chaand numaayaan hogaa

— Siraj Lakhnavi

na mohtasib ki khushaamad na mai-kade kaa tavaaf
khudi mein mast huun apni bahaar mein gum huun

— Siraj Lakhnavi

qafas bhi bigDi hui shakl hai nasheman ki
ye ghar jo phir se sanvar jaae aashiyaan ho jaae

— Siraj Lakhnavi

har ashk-e-surkh hai daamaan-e-shab mein aag kaa phuul
baghair shama ke bhi jal rahe hain parvaane

— Siraj Lakhnavi

abhi rakkhaa rahne do taaq par yunhi aaftaab kaa aaina
ki abhi to meri nigaah mein vahi meraa maah-e-tamaam hai

— Siraj Lakhnavi

Takraaun kyuun zamaane se kyaa faaeda 'siraaj'
khud apne raaste se haTaa jaa rahaa huun main

— Siraj Lakhnavi

vo chaand hai to aks bhi paani mein aaegaa
kirdaar khud ubhar ke kahaani mein aaegaa

— Iqbal Sajid

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai

chaand ne taan li hai chaadar-e-abr
ab vo kapDe badal rahi hogi

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

— Siraj Aurangabadi

bahut hasin raat hai magar tum to so rahe ho
nikal ke kamre se ik nazar chaandni to dekho
