dil-e-naadaan tujhe hua kya hai

dil-e-naadaaN tujhe hu’aa kyaa hai

aaKhir is dard kii davaa kyaa hai


ham haiN mushtaaq aur vo bezaar

yaa ilaahii ! ye maajraa kyaa hai


ham bhii muuNh meN zabaan rakhate huuN

kaash puuchho ke mudda’a kyaa hai


jab ki tujh bin nahiiN ko’ii maujuud

phir ye hangaamaa ai Khudaa kyaa hai

ye parii-cheharaa log kaise haiN

Ghamzaa-o-ishvaa-o-adaa kyaa hai


shikan-e-zulf-e-ambarii kyoN hai

nigah-e-chashm-e-suurmaa saa kyaa hai


sabzaa-o-gul kahaaN se aaye haiN

abr kyaa chiiz hai havaa kyaa hai


hamko unse vafaa kii hai ummiid

jo nahiiN jaante vafaa kyaa hai


haaN bhalaa kar teraa bhalaa hogaa

aur darvesh kii sadaa kyaa hai


jaan tum par nisaar kartaa huuN

maiN nahiiN jaantaa du’aa kyaa hai


ham ne maanaa ke kuchh nahiiN “Ghalib”

muft haath aaye to buraa kyaa hai


Mirza Ghalib
