Bahadur Shah Zafar
hai dil ko jo yaad aai falak-e-pir kisi ki
ankhon ke tale phirti hai tasvir kisi ki
girya bhi hai naala bhi hai aur ah-o-fughan bhi
par dil men hui us ke na tasir kisi ki
haath aae hai kya khaak tire khak-e-kaf-e-pa
jab tak ki na qismat men ho iksir kisi ki
yaaro vo hai bigda hua baten na banao
kuchh pesh nahin jaane ki taqrir kisi ki
nazan na ho munim ki jahan tera mahal hai
hovegi yahan pahle bhi taamir kisi ki
meri girah-e-dil na khuli hai na khulegi
jab tak na khule zulf-e-girah-gir kisi ki
aata bhi agar hai to vo phir jaae hai ulta
jis vaqt ulat jaae hai taqdir kisi ki
is abru o mizhgan se ‘zafar’ tez ziyada
khanjar na kisi ka hai na shamshir kisi ki
jo dil se udhar jaae nazar dil ho giraftar
mujrim ho koi aur ho taqsir kisi ki
