Hum Ko Diwana Jaan Ke Kya Kya Zulm Na Dhaya Logon Ne

Kaif Bhopali

ham ko divana jaan ke kya kya zulm na Dhaya logon ne

diin chhuḌaya dharm chhuḌaya des chhuḌaya logon ne

teri gali men aa nikle the dosh hamara itna tha

patthar maare tohmat bandhi aib lagaya logon ne

teri laTon men so lete the be-ghar ashiq be-ghar log

buḌhe bargad aaj tujhe bhi kaaT giraya logon ne

nur-e-sahar ne nik.hat-e-gul ne rang-e-shafaq ne kah di baat

kitna kitna meri zaban par qufl lagaya logon ne

‘mir-taqi’ ke rang ka ghaza ru-e-ghazal par aa na saka

‘kaif’ hamare ‘mir-taqi’ ka rang uḌaya logon ne
