ghaTaaein uudi uudi mai-kada bar-dosh-e-fasl-e-gul — Vahshi Kanpuri

shikast-e-saaghar-e-dil ki sadaaein sun rahaa huun main
zaraa puchho to saaqi se ki paimaanon pe kyaa guzri

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

mohabbat phuul banne par lagi thi
palaT kar phir kali kar li hai main ne

dil ko apne kyaa kisi kaa ghar kahun
aaj khalvat-khaana kal baazaar hai

nishaan kyon DhunDhte ho ungliyon ke
qazaa aai thi dastaane pahan kar
