Sheikh Ibrahim Zauq
balaen ankhon se un ki mudam lete hain
ham apne hathon ka mizhgan se kaam lete hain
ham un ki zulf se sauda jo vaam lete hain
to asl o suud vo sab daam daam lete hain
shab-e-visal ke roz-e-firaq men kya kya
nasib mujh se mire intiqam lete hain
qamar hi dagh-e-ghulami faqat nahin rakhta
vo mol aise hazaron ghulam lete hain
ham un ke zor ke qaail hain hain vahi shah-zor
jo ishq men dil-e-muztar ko thaam lete hain
qatil-e-naz batate nahin tujhe qatil
jab un se puchho ajal hi ka naam lete hain
tire asiir jo sayyad karte hain fariyad
to phir vo dam hi nahin zer-e-dam lete hain
jhukae hai sar-e-taslim mah-e-nau par vo
ghurur-e-husn se kis ka salam lete hain
tire khiram ke pairu hain jitne fitne hain
qadam sab aan ke vaqt-e-khiram lete hain
hamare haath se ai ‘zauq’ vaqt-e-mai-noshi
hazar naaz se vo ek jaam lete hain
