MORE BYSyed Yusuf Ali Khan Nazim
ham ko havas-e-jalva-gāh-e-tūr nahīñ hai
us husn kī kyā qadr jo mastūr nahīñ hai
afsāna-e-majnūñ se nahīñ kam mirā qissa
is baat ko jaane do ki mash.hūr nahīñ hai
ka.abe ko chale jaa.eñ dar-e-dost se uTh kar
par us kā satānā hameñ manzūr nahīñ hai
vo merī ayādat ko zarūr ā.eñgī hamdam
kahte haiñ ki makkār hai ranjūr nahīñ hai
khilne se bhalā us ke dukhe kyuuñ dil-e-bulbul
hai ġhuncha-e-gul zaḳhm kā añgūr nahīñ hai
dāvat se musaḳhḳhar ho na taa.at se mayassar
huuñ jis pe fidā vo parī-o-hūr nahīñ hai
mushrik kahe āshiq ko jo le naam ḳhudā kā
sach kahte ho us shoḳh se kuchh duur nahīñ hai
ho raat to jiite raheñ ummīd-e-sahar par
ye roz-e-siyah hī shab-e-dījūr nahīñ hai
'nāzim' maiñ paḌhātā use 'ġhālib' ke qasā.ed
afsos ki 'ḳhāqānī'-e-maġhfūr nahīñ hai
hum ko hawas-e-jalwa-gah-e-tur nahin hai
us husn ki kya qadr jo mastur nahin hai
afsana-e-majnun se nahin kam mera qissa
is baat ko jaane do ki mashhur nahin hai
kabe ko chale jaen dar-e-dost se uTh kar
par us ka satana hamein manzur nahin hai
wo meri ayaadat ko zarur aaengi hamdam
kahte hain ki makkar hai ranjur nahin hai
khilne se bhala us ke dukhe kyun dil-e-bulbul
hai ghuncha-e-gul zaKHm ka angur nahin hai
dawat se musaKHKHar ho na taat se mayassar
hun jis pe fida wo pari-o-hur nahin hai
mushrik kahe aashiq ko jo le nam KHuda ka
sach kahte ho us shoKH se kuchh dur nahin hai
ho raat to jite rahen ummid-e-sahar par
ye roz-e-siyah hi shab-e-dijur nahin hai
'nazim' main paDhata use 'ghaalib' ke qasaed
afsos ki 'KHaqani'-e-maghfur nahin hai
