Sher of Qamar Jalalvi
zarā ruuTh jaane pe itnī ḳhushāmad
'qamar' tum bigāḌoge aadat kisī kī
zara ruTh jaane pe itni KHushamad
'qamar' tum bigaDoge aadat kisi ki
shukriya ai qabr tak pahuñchāne vaalo shukriya
ab akele hī chale jā.eñge is manzil se ham
shukriya ai qabr tak pahunchane walo shukriya
ab akele hi chale jaenge is manzil se hum
sunā hai ġhair kī mahfil meñ tum na jāoge
kaho to aaj sajā luuñ ġharīb-ḳhāne ko
suna hai ghair ki mahfil mein tum na jaoge
kaho to aaj saja lun gharib-KHane ko

pūchho na araq ruḳhsāroñ se rañgīnī-e-husn ko baḌhne do
sunte haiñ ki shabnam ke qatre phūloñ ko nikhārā karte haiñ
wipe not the droplets from your face, let beauty's lustre grow
drops of dew when flowers grace, enhance their freshness so
puchho na araq ruKHsaron se rangini-e-husn ko baDhne do
sunte hain ki shabnam ke qatre phulon ko nikhaara karte hain
wipe not the droplets from your face, let beauty's lustre grow
drops of dew when flowers grace, enhance their freshness so

is liye aarzū chhupā.ī hai
muñh se niklī huī parā.ī hai
is liye aarzu chhupai hai
munh se nikli hui parai hai
'qamar' kisī se bhī dil kā ilaaj ho na sakā

jati hui mayyat dekh ke bhi wallah tum uTh kar aa na sake
do chaar qadam to dushman bhi taklif gawara karte hain
abhī baaqī haiñ pattoñ par jale tinkoñ kī tahrīreñ
ye vo tārīḳh hai bijlī girī thī jab gulistāñ par

nasheman KHak hone se wo sadma dil ko pahuncha hai
ki ab hum se koi bhi raushni dekhi nahin jati
jigar kā daaġh chhupāo 'qamar' ḳhudā ke liye

tum meñ jo baat hai vo baat nahīñ aa.ī hai
kyā ye tasvīr kisī aur se khiñchvā.ī hai

har vaqt mahviyat hai yahī sochtā huuñ maiñ
kyuuñ barq ne jalāyā mirā āshiyāñ na pūchh
har waqt mahwiyat hai yahi sochta hun main
kyun barq ne jalaya mera aashiyan na puchh
ḳhuun hotā hai sahar tak mire armānoñ kā
shām-e-va.ada jo vo pāband-e-hinā hotā hai
KHun hota hai sahar tak mere armanon ka
sham-e-wada jo wo paband-e-hina hota hai
