Ghazal 117

garmi-e-hasrat-e-nakaam se jal jate hain

apne hathon ki lakiron mein saja le mujhko

pareshan raat sari hai sitaro tum to so jao

apne honTon par sajaana chahta hun

sadma to hai mujhe bhi ki tujhse juda hun main

Nazm 29

zindagi ya tawaif

mutmain koi nahin hai is se

ye meri ghazlen ye meri nazMein

ye meri ghazlen ye meri nazMein

aaj ki baaten kal ke sapne

jab bhi tanha mujhe pate hain guzarte lamhe

lamhon ki parastar

maine chaha tha use ruh ki rahat ke liye

aap-biti

mere KHwabon ke shabistan mein ujala na karo

hameñ bhī niiñd aa jā.egī ham bhī so hī jā.eñge

abhī kuchh be-qarārī hai sitāro tum to so jaao

hamein bhi nind aa jaegi hum bhi so hi jaenge

abhi kuchh be-qarari hai sitaro tum to so jao

jab bhī aatā hai mirā naam tire naam ke saath

jaane kyuuñ log mire naam se jal jaate haiñ

whenever my name happens to be linked to thee

I wonder why these people burn with jealousy

jab bhi aata hai mera nam tere nam ke sath

jaane kyun log mere nam se jal jate hain

whenever my name happens to be linked to thee

I wonder why these people burn with jealousy

āḳhrī hichkī tire zānūñ pe aa.e

maut bhī maiñ shā.irāna chāhtā huuñ

aaKHri hichki tere zanun pe aae

maut bhi main shairana chahta hun

yuuñ lage dost tirā mujh se ḳhafā ho jaanā

jis tarah phuul se ḳhushbū kā judā ho jaanā

yun lage dost tera mujh se KHafa ho jaana

jis tarah phul se KHushbu ka juda ho jaana

chalo achchhā huā kaam aa ga.ī dīvāngī apnī

vagarna ham zamāne bhar ko samjhāne kahāñ jaate

twas a good thing that my madness was to some avail

else, for my state, what other reason could the world I show?

chalo achchha hua kaam aa gai diwangi apni

dohrai hai yaadon ne kahani teri

aabaad usi ne dil ki wadi ki hai

aati hai to khilti hai gulabon ki tarah

TuTi hui banbi mein wo bas leta hai

lamhon ka nishana kabhi hota hi nahin
