Bahadur Shah Zafar
tufta-janon ka ilaaj ai ahl-e-danish aur hai
ishq ki atish bala hai us ki sozish aur hai
kyuun na vahshat men chubhe har mu ba-shakl-e-nish-tez
khar-e-gham ki tere divane ki kavish aur hai
mutribo ba-saz aao tum hamari bazm men
saz-o-saman se tumhari itni sazish aur hai
thukta bhi dukhtar-e-raz par nahin mast-e-alast
jo ki hai us fahisha par ghash vo fahish aur hai
taab kya ham-tab hove us se khurshid-e-falak
aftab-e-dagh-e-dil ki apne tabish aur hai
sab mita den dil se hain jitni ki us men khvahishen
gar hamen malum ho kuchh us ki khvahish aur hai
abr mat ham-chashm hona chashm-e-dariya-bar se
teri barish aur hai aur us ki barish aur hai
hai to gardish charkh ki bhi fitna-angezi men taaq
teri chashm-e-fitna-za ki lek gardish aur hai
but-parasti jis se hove haq-parasti ai ‘zafar’
kya kahun tujh se ki vo tarz-e-parastish aur hai
