Qaid-E-Gham-E-Hayat Se Ahl-E-Jahan Mafar Nahin

Darshan Singh

qaid-e-gham-e-hayat se ahl-e-jahan mafar nahin

aisi mili hai sham-e-gham jis ki koi sahar nahin

hai vo safar jo ishq ko janib dost le chale

varna safar ke vaste kaun si rahguzar nahin

ahl-e-ḳhirad ko chahiye dil ke nagar men aa basen

dil sa hasin-o-ḳhush-numa aur koi nagar nahin

tere karam pe hai yaqin garche ye janta huun main

naala hai mera na-rasa aah men kuchh asar nahin

hasrat-e-intizar ki baat na ham se puchhiye

hai ye tavil dastan qissa-e-muḳhtasar nahin

luT to ga.e hain dil magar mil bhi ga.i hain manzilen

rahguzar-e-hayat men ishq sa rahbar nahin

apna raha na hosh jab raz-e-hayat pa liya

nemat-e-be-ḳhudi samajh hosh ka ye samar nahin

ishq mata-e-la-makan ishq mata-e-javedan

sho.ala-e-da.emi hai ye manzar-e-yak-sharar nahin

‘darshan’-e-mast se milen kholega raz-e-agahi

garche vahan hai jis jagah apni use ḳhabar nahin
