Sher of Shefta Mustafa Khan
iz.hār-e-ishq us se na karnā thā 'sheftā'
ye kyā kiyā ki dost ko dushman banā diyā
izhaar-e-ishq us se na karna tha 'shefta'
ye kya kiya ki dost ko dushman bana diya
ham tālib-e-shohrat haiñ hameñ nañg se kyā kaam
badnām agar hoñge to kyā naam na hogā
hum talib-e-shohrat hain hamein nang se kya kaam
badnam agar honge to kya nam na hoga
fasāne yuuñ to mohabbat ke sach haiñ par kuchh kuchh
baḌhā bhī dete haiñ ham zeb-e-dāstāñ ke liye
fasane yun to mohabbat ke sach hain par kuchh kuchh
baDha bhi dete hain hum zeb-e-dastan ke liye

jis lab ke ġhair bose leñ us lab se 'sheftā'
kambaḳht gāliyāñ bhī nahīñ mere vāste
those lips that others get to kiss alas on them I see
not even curses or abuse are now assigned for me
jis lab ke ghair bose len us lab se 'shefta'
kambaKHt galiyan bhi nahin mere waste
those lips that others get to kiss alas on them I see
not even curses or abuse are now assigned for me

be-uzr vo kar lete haiñ va.ada ye samajh kar
ye ahl-e-muravvat haiñ taqāzā na kareñge
be-uzr wo kar lete hain wada ye samajh kar
ye ahl-e-murawwat hain taqaza na karenge
shāyad isī kā naam mohabbat hai 'sheftā'
ik aag sī hai siine ke andar lagī huī
shayad isi ka nam mohabbat hai 'shefta'
ek aag si hai sine ke andar lagi hui
hazār daam se niklā huuñ ek jumbish meñ
jise ġhurūr ho aa.e kare shikār mujhe
hazar dam se nikla hun ek jumbish mein
jise ghurur ho aae kare shikar mujhe
kis liye lutf kī bāteñ haiñ phir
kyā koī aur sitam yaad aayā
kis liye lutf ki baaten hain phir
kya koi aur sitam yaad aaya

tere kūche meñ sitamgār tire kūche meñ
kis tajahul se wo kahta hai kahan rahte ho
tere kuche mein sitamgar tere kuche mein
