Jis ZaKHm Ki Ho Sakti Ho Tadbir Rafu Ki
jis zaKHm ki ho sakti ho tadbir rafu ki
likh dijiyo ya rab use qismat mein adu ki
achchha hai sar-angusht-e-hinai ka tasawwur
dil mein nazar aati to hai ek bund lahu ki
kyun Darte ho ushshaq ki be-hauslagi se
yan to koi sunta nahin fariyaad kisu ki
dashne ne kabhi munh na lagaya ho jigar ko
KHanjar ne kabhi baat na puchhi ho gulu ki
sad-haif wo nakaam ki ek umr se 'ghaalib'
hasrat mein rahe ek but-e-arbada-ju ki
go zindagi-e-zahid-e-be-chaara abas hai
itna hai ki rahti to hai tadbir wazu ki
Mirza Ghalib
