Mere Jigar Ki Tab Dekh ruKH Ki Shikastagi Na Dekh

Anand Narayan Mulla

mire jigar ki taab dekh ruḳh ki shikastagi na dekh

fitrat-e-ashiqi samajh qismat-e-ashiqi na dekh

aur nazar vasi.a kar pesh-e-nigah hi na dekh

maut men DhunD zindagi ziist men nisti na dekh

jaise har ik nafas nafas nok-e-sinan liye hue

ishq ka ḳhvab dekh le ishq ki zindagi na dekh

main to sara-e-shauq men dil ka kanval jala chuka

ab ye tiri ḳhushi ki tu dekh ki raushni na dekh

ek usuul yaad rakh salik-e-rah-e-zindagi

naqsh-o-nigar-e-dahr dekh muḌ ke magar kabhi na dekh

apni nigah pher le haan ye mujhe qubul hai

rakh miri aarzu ki sharm-e-shauq ki bebasi na dekh

tujh pe ayaan hai raz-e-dil jaan ke bin na be-ḳhabar

ma.ani-e-ḳhamushi samajh surat-e-ḳhamushi na dekh

‘mulla’ ye kya laga liya dil ko hansi hansi men rog

baat bata rahe the jo ho ke rahi vahi na dekh
