Poet Name: Bahadur Shah Zafar

ye qissa vo nahin tum jis ko qissa-khvan se suno mire fasana-e-gham ko miri zaban se suno sunao dard-e-dil apna

yaan khaak ka bistar hai gale men kafani hai vaan haath men aina hai gul pairahani hai hathon se hamen

ya mujhe afsar-e-shahana banaya hota ya mira taaj gadayana banaya hota apna divana banaya mujhe hota tu ne kyuun khirad-mand

vo sau sau atkhaton se ghar se bahar do qadam nikle bala se us ki gar us men kisi muztar

vaqif hain ham ki hazrat-e-gham aise shakhs hain aur phir ham un ke yaar hain ham aise shakhs hain divane

vaan rasai nahin to phir kya hai ye judai nahin to phir kya hai ho mulaqat to safai se aur

vaan irada aaj us qatil ke dil men aur hai aur yahan kuchh aarzu bismil ke dil men aur hai

vaan irada aaj us qatil ke dil men aur hai aur yahan kuchh aarzu bismil ke dil men aur hai

tufta-janon ka ilaaj ai ahl-e-danish aur hai ishq ki atish bala hai us ki sozish aur hai kyuun na vahshat

shamshir-e-barhana maang ghazab balon ki mahak phir vaisi hi juude ki gundhavat qahr-e-khuda balon ki mahak phir vaisi hi razor-sharp
