Mirza Ghalib
aina dekh apna sa munh le ke rah gae
sahab ko dil na dene pe kitna ghurur tha
qasid ko apne haath se gardan na mariye
us ki khata nahin hai ye mera qusur tha
zof-e-junun ko vaqt-e-tapish dar bhi duur tha
ik ghar men mukhtasar bayaban zarur tha
ai vae-ghaflat-e-nigah-e-shauq varna yaan
har paara sang lakht-e-dil-e-koh-e-tur tha
dars-e-tapish hai barq ko ab jis ke naam se
vo dil hai ye ki jis ka takhallus subur tha
har rang men jala ‘asad’-e-fitna-intizar
parvana-e-tajalli-e-sham-e-zuhur tha
shayad ki mar gaya tire rukhsar dekh kar
paimana raat maah ka labrez-e-nur tha
jannat hai teri tegh ke kushton ki muntazir
jauhar savad-e-jalva-e-mizhgan-e-hur tha
