Zakir Khan Zakir
dard shayan-e-shan-e-dil bhi nahin
aur shab-e-hijr mustaqil bhi nahin
yuun gale mil ke fa.eda kya hai
zaḳhm andar se mundamil bhi nahin
vasl bhi hai firaq bhi is men
mausam-e-ishq mo.atadil bhi nahin
har kisi se ye mel kyuun khaa.e
dil to phir dil hai ab-o-gil bhi nahin
soch hai kuchh haqiqaten kuchh hain
ḳhvab-e-ta.abir muttasil bhi nahin
ab bhi jaari hai raqs miTTi ka
saans ke taar muzmahil bhi nahin
ham jo ruThe hain jaan se ‘zakir’
rabt TuuTa hai munfasil bhi nahin
