Urdu Poetry

sun to sahii jahaan main hai teraa fasaanaa kyaa
kahti hai tujh se Khalq-e-Khudaa Gaibanaa kya

zina saba kaa Dhundati hai apni musht-e-Khaak
baam-e-baland yaar ka hai astana kya

ati hai kis tarah se meri kabz-e-ruuh ko
dekhun to maut dhund rahe hai bahana kya

betab hai kamal hamara dil-e-aziim
mahmaan saray-e-jism ka hoga ravana kya
================================


yaar ko main ne mujhe yaar ne sone na diyaa
raat bhar taali-e-bedaar ne sone na diyaa

ek shab bul bul-e-betaab ke jaage na nasiib
pahaluu-e-gul main kabhii Khaar ne sone na diyaa

raat bhar kii dil-e-betaab ne baatain mujh se
mujh ko is ishq ke biimaar ne sone na diyaa

yaar ko main ne mujhe yaar ne sone na diyaa
raat bhar taali-e-bedaar ne sone na diyaa

ek shab bul bul-e-betaab ke jaage na nasiib
pahaluu-e-gul main kabhii Khaar ne sone na diyaa

raat bhar kii dil-e-betaab ne baatain mujh se
mujh ko is ishq ke biimaar ne sone na diyaa

ye aarazuu thii tujhe gul ke ruu-ba-ruu karate

ye aarazuu thii tujhe gul ke ruu-ba-ruu karate
ham aur bul bul-e-betaab guftaguu karte

payaam bar na mayassar huaa to Khuub huaa
zabaan-e-Gair se kyaa shar kii aarazuu karate

merii tarah se maah-o-mahar bhii hain avara
kisii habiib ko ye bhii hain justajuu karate

jo dekhate terii zanjeer-e-zulf kaa aalam
asiir hone ke aazaad aarazuu karate

na puuchh aalam-e-baragashtaa taali-e-"Aatish"
barasatii aag main jo baaraaN kii aarazuu karate
