dekh Kar dar-Parda Garm-E-daman-Afshani Mujhe

Mirza Ghalib

dekh kar dar-parda garm-e-daman-afshani mujhe

kar gai vabasta-e-tan meri uryani mujhe

ban gaya tegh-e-nigah-e-yar ka sang-e-fasan

marhaba main kya mubarak hai giran-jani mujhe

kyuun na ho be-iltifati us ki khatir jama hai

janta hai mahv-e-pursish-ha-e-pinhani mujhe

mere gham-khane ki qismat jab raqam hone lagi

likh diya min-jumla-e-asbab-e-virani mujhe

bad-guman hota hai vo kafir na hota kaash ke

is qadar zauq-e-nava-e-murgh-e-bustani mujhe

vaae vaan bhi shor-e-mahshar ne na dam lene diya

le gaya tha gor men zauq-e-tan-asani mujhe

vaada aane ka vafa kiije ye kya andaz hai

tum ne kyuun saunpi hai mere ghar ki darbani mujhe

haan nashat-e-amad-e-fasl-e-bahari vaah vaah

phir hua hai taaza sauda-e-ghazal-khvani mujhe

di mire bhaai ko haq ne az-sar-e-nau zindagi

mirza yusuf hai ‘ghalib’ yusuf-e-sani mujhe
