Tandurusti di Khuda Ne To Naqahat Na Gai

Syed Nazeer Hasan Sakha Dehlavi

tandurusti di khuda ne to naqahat na gai

yaani tauba se bhi isyan ki nadamat na gai

shaikh-ji mahfil-e-rindan se ye kahte nikle

shukr-sad-shukr ki bazar men izzat na gai

naam baaqi hai zamana men to bhar paaya

gae mardan-e-khuda khalq se shohrat na gai

kis ka jalva nazar aaya tha use roz-e-azal

aaj tak nargis-e-bedar ki hairat na gai

mar gaya mar ke bhi thandi na hui laash mari

soz-e-furqat ki magar dil se hararat na gai

zard nuqra nahin insan ki tarah murda-pasand

jo gaya qabr men tanha gaya daulat na gai

huur jo tujh se mushabah thi usi ko dekha

marne ke baad bhi zalim tiri ulfat na gai

nafas bahkata hai piiri men to kahta huun ‘sakha’

kyuun ba-shaitan tiri ab bhi shararat na gai
