Poet
ḳhirqa-poshi men ḳhud-numa.i hai
haath bas kasa-e-gada.i hai
boriya bhi nahin use darkar
jis ke ta.iin shauq-e-be-riya.i hai
gul sab hanste hain bazm-e-gulshan men
ishq-e-bulbul magar riya.i hai
jald jaati hai asman uupar
aah meri ajab hava.i hai
sham-e-mina ke nuur suun saaqi
mahfil dil men raushna.i hai
har ghaḌi dekhta hai darpan kuun
shoḳh men tarz-e-ḳhud-numa.i hai
jab suun dekha huun us ki zulf-e-daraz
tab suun mujh fikr men rasa.i hai
kaan u dekha hai ḳhvab men maḳhmal
tujh kaf-e-pa men jo safa.i hai
kyuun na hue mah-e-nau misal-e-aziz
jis mane rasm-e-kam-numa.i hai
dast-e-gul-ru men pahunchne ‘da.ud’
kaghaz-e-ḳhat mira hina.i hai
