Chaman Mein Dekh Ghunchon Ko Jawani Apni Yaad Aai

Poet

chaman men dekh ghunchon ko javani apni yaad aa.i

fasana sun ke bulbul ka kahani apni yaad aa.i

jo dekhi nargis-e-bimar gulshan men to bas ham ko

bahut riqqat hui aur na-tavani apni yaad aa.i

suna kal dekhte hi aa.ine ko kya kahun tum se

mujhe bas aankh hai hai DabDaba.i apni yaad aa.i

chaman men chahchaha bulbul ka bas junhi suna ham ne

to bas yaron men ham ko sher-ḳhvani apni yaad aa.i

jo dekha hal-e-sham.a sub.h ham ne bazm men ja kar

to ham ko umr-e-be-huda ganvani apni yaad aa.i

saba ke chheḌ jo ham ne gulon se sub.h-dam dekhi

to us gul-ru se ham ko chheḌ-ḳhvani apni yaad aa.i

hua jaata hai siine men jo dil ḳhuun hamdamo shayad

kahin us shoḳh ko mehndi rachani apni yaad aa.i

hila.i jo saba ne zulf-e-pur-ḳham us pari-vash ko

to vo zanjir-e-dar ham ko hilani apni yaad aa.i

na puchho kuchh ki hangam-e-tamasha dekh dariya ko

mujhe kya kya tabi.at ki ravani apni yaad aa.i

ye tu ne ‘aish’ dekhi zulf-e-pechan kis ki jo tujh ko

pareshan-ḳhatiri ashufta-jani apni yaad aa.i
