Qamar Jalalvi
surḳhiyan kyuun DhunDh kar la.un fasane ke liye
bas tumhara naam kaafi hai zamane ke liye
maujen sahil se haTati hain hababon ka hujum
vo chale aa.e hain sahil par nahane ke liye
sochta huun ab kahin bijli giri to kyuun giri
tinke laaya tha kahan se ashiyane ke liye
chhoḌ kar basti ye divane kahan se aa ga.e
dasht ki baiThi-bi.Tha.i ḳhaak uḌane ke liye
hans ke kahte ho zamana bhar mujhi par jaan de
rah ga.e ho kya tumhin saare zamane ke liye
shaam ko aaoge tum achchha abhi hoti hai shaam
gesuon ko khol do suraj chhupane ke liye
ka.enat-e-ishq ik dil ke siva kuchh bhi nahin
vo hi aane ke liye hai vo hi jaane ke liye
ai zamane bhar ko ḳhushiyan dene vaale ye bata
kya ‘qamar’ hi rah gaya hai gham uThane ke liye
