Mirza Ghalib
ajab nashat se jallad ke chale hain ham aage
ki apne saae se sar paanv se hai do qadam aage
qaza ne tha mujhe chaha kharab-e-bada-e-ulfat
faqat kharab likha bas na chal saka qalam aage
gham-e-zamana ne jhadi nashat-e-ishq ki masti
vagarna ham bhi uthate the lazzat-e-alam aage
khuda ke vaste daad us junun-e-shauq ki dena
ki us ke dar pe pahunchte hain nama-bar se ham aage
ye umr bhar jo pareshaniyan uthai hain ham ne
tumhare aaiyo ai turrah-ha-e-kham-ba-kham aage
dil o jigar men pur-afshan jo ek mauja-e-khun hai
ham apne zom men samjhe hue the us ko dam aage
qasam janaze pe aane ki mere khate hain ‘ghalib’
hamesha khate the jo meri jaan ki qasam aage
