Bahadur Shah Zafar
ham ne tiri khatir se dil-e-zar bhi chhoda
tu bhi na hua yaar aur ik yaar bhi chhoda
kya hoga rafugar se rafu mera gareban
ai dast-e-junun tu ne nahin taar bhi chhoda
diin de ke gaya kufr ke bhi kaam se ashiq
tasbih ke saath us ne to zunnar bhi chhoda
goshe men tiri chashm-e-siyah-mast ke dil ne
ki jab se jagah khana-e-khummar bhi chhoda
is se hai gharibon ko tasalli ki ajal ne
muflis ko jo maara to na zardar bhi chhoda
tedhe na ho ham se rakho ikhlas to sidha
tum pyaar se rukte ho to lo pyaar bhi chhoda
kya chhoden asiran-e-mohabbat ko vo jis ne
sadqe men na ik murgh-e-giraftar bhi chhoda
pahunchi miri rusvai ki kyunkar khabar us ko
us shokh ne to dekhna akhbar bhi chhoda
karta tha jo yaan aane ka jhuta kabhi iqrar
muddat se ‘zafar’ us ne vo iqrar bhi chhoda
