Wafa Ke Hain Khwan Par Niwale Ze-Aab Awwal doam Ba-Atish

Poet

vafa ke hain khvan par nivale ze-aab avval doam ba-atish

bhare hai saaqi yahan pyale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

chaman men josh-e-junun ke hain ashk aur dagh-e-darun se apne

karun shagufta gul aur laale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

hamare ashk aur aah ki maujen bandh deti hain sab jo duuri

bane hain mah-e-falak pe haale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

jahan ke sab garm o sard dekhe na zauq hai un men kuchh na lazzat

do roz chhati yahan pakale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

do hukm hain shah-e-ishq ke in men ek galna hai ek jalna

hain daftar-e-dard men qabale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

na khol vaaiz kitab-e-danish ki atish-e-ishq o ab-e-mai se

dhoun jalaun tire risale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

sitam hai aafat hai mahr ya kiin bala ye ishq-e-satiza-gar ki

dilon ke khane ujaad daale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

pade hain ham khun-e-dil men ghaltan jigar hai dagh-e-jafa se sozan

koi hai apne taiin sambhale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish

visal ki justuju men ‘hasrat’ chala na zaari na zor ka kuchh

bahut se yaan ham ne dhab nikale ze-ab avval doam ba-atish
