Dagh Dehlvi
khulta nahin hai raaz hamare bayan se
lete hain dil ka kaam ham apni zaban se
kya lazzat-e-visal ada ho bayan se
sab harf chipke jaate hain meri zaban se
mashhur raz-e-ishq hai kis ke bayan se
meri zaban se ki tumhari zaban se
fitna bana zamin pe har zarra khaak ka
nikle hain bahr-e-sair vo jis dam makan se
us din se mujh ko niind na aai tamam umr
ik shab mili thi aankh tire pasban se
ye khaak men milae to vo ho sitam-sharik
mujh ko zamin se laag unhen asman se
lena sambhalna ki mire hosh ud chale
aata hai koi mast qayamat ki shaan se
mujh se nazar mila ke tum abru men bal na do
sidha chalega tiir na tedhi kaman se
bazar-e-ishq men hain bahut dil jagah jagah
dekhen vo mol lete hain kis ki dukan se
shorida-sar vo huun ki use sar se tod duun
gar sang-e-hadsa bhi gire asman se
arzan kare farokht agar mai-farosh-e-ishq
lene lagen farishte bhi us ki dukan se
guzri hai azmaish-e-mahr-o-vafa men umr
fursat mujhe mili na kabhi imtihan se
dil bhi bacha jigar bhi bacha khair ho gai
tir-e-nigah paar hua darmiyan se
main tum ko nagavar huun dil mujh ko nagavar
tum mujh se tang aur huun main tang jaan se
haan haan tira raqib se be-shak hai rabt-zabt
rutba yaqin ka hai ziyada guman se
mehr-o-vafa ka naam hai ab baat baat par
ye sun liya hai aap ne kis ki zaban se
kaisa khila hai phuul jab aaya bahar par
puchhe to koi lutf-e-javani javan se
danista ate-jaton se ladta hai raat din
phir ho padi thi aaj tire pasban se
is khub-ru ko bazm-e-hasinan men dekhiye
karta hai an-ban badi an-tan se
ai ‘dagh’ is ki khair manata hai aadmi
koi aziiz badh ke nahin apni jaan se
