baat dil ko mere lagi nahin hai
baat dil ko mire lagī nahīñ hai
mere bhaa.ī ye shā.erī nahīñ hai
jāntī hai mire charāġh kī lau
kaun se ghar meñ raushnī nahīñ hai
vo ta.alluq bhī mustaqil nahīñ thā
ye mohabbat bhī dā.imī nahīñ hai
maiñ jo qissa sunā chukā to khulā
koī dīvār boltī nahīñ hai
dekhne vaalī aañkh bhī to ho
kaun dariyā meñ jal-parī nahīñ hai
buzdilā chhup ke vaar kartā hai
tujh ko tahzīb-e-dushmanī nahīñ hai
kyā karūñ is bahisht ko jis meñ
ek botal sharāb kī nahīñ hai
tujh se milnā bhī hai nahīñ bhī mujhe
aur tabī.at ulajh rahī nahīñ hai
kaun se shahr ke charāġh ho tum
tum meñ dam bhar kī raushnī nahīñ hai
jis kā charchā hai shahr meñ 'āmī'
vo ġhazal to abhī kahī nahīñ hai
baat dil ko mere lagi nahin hai
mere bhai ye shaeri nahin hai
jaanti hai mere charagh ki lau
kaun se ghar mein raushni nahin hai
wo talluq bhi mustaqil nahin tha
ye mohabbat bhi daimi nahin hai
main jo qissa suna chuka to khula
koi diwar bolti nahin hai
dekhne wali aankh bhi to ho
kaun dariya mein jal-pari nahin hai
buzdila chhup ke war karta hai
tujh ko tahzib-e-dushmani nahin hai
kya karun is bahisht ko jis mein
ek botal sharab ki nahin hai
tujh se milna bhi hai nahin bhi mujhe
aur tabiat ulajh rahi nahin hai
kaun se shahr ke charagh ho tum
tum mein dam bhar ki raushni nahin hai
jis ka charcha hai shahr mein 'ami'
wo ghazal to abhi kahi nahin hai
