Ranj-O-Rahat Wasl-O-Furqat Hosh-O-Wahshat Kya Nahin

Firaq Gorakhpuri

ranj-o-rahat vasl-o-furqat hosh-o-vahshat kya nahin

kaun kahta hai ki rahne ki jagah duniya nahin

ahl-e-gham tum ko mubarak ye fana amadgi

lekin isar-e-mohabbat jaan de dena nahin

husn sar-ta-pa tamanna ishq sar-ta-sar ghurur

is ka andaza niyaz-o-naz se hota nahin

ek halat par zamane men na guzri ishq ki

dard ki duniya bhi ab vo dard ki duniya nahin

jis ke shoalon se thi kal tak garmi-e-bazm-e-hayat

aaj is khakistar-e-dil se dhuan uthta nahin

main adam andar adam main huun jahan andar jahan

ek hi duniya ho meri ai ‘firaq’ aisa nahin
