Sher of Pandit Jawahar Nath Saqi
falak pe chāñd sitāre nikalte haiñ har shab
sitam yahī hai nikaltā nahīñ hamārā chāñd
falak pe chand sitare nikalte hain har shab
sitam yahi hai nikalta nahin hamara chand
ham ko bharam ne bahr-e-tavahhum banā diyā
dariyā samajh ke kuud paḌe ham sarāb meñ
hum ko bharam ne bahr-e-tawahhum bana diya
dariya samajh ke kud paDe hum sarab mein
vo maah jalva dikhā kar hameñ huā rū-posh
ye aarzū hai ki nikle kahīñ dobārā chāñd
wo mah jalwa dikha kar hamein hua ru-posh
ye aarzu hai ki nikle kahin dobara chand
qālib ko apne chhoḌ ke maqlūb ho ga.e
kyā aur koī qalb hai is inqalāb meñ
qalib ko apne chhoD ke maqlub ho gae
kya aur koi qalb hai is inqalab mein
nahīñ khultā sabab tabassum kā
aaj kyā koī bosa deñge aap
nahin khulta sabab tabassum ka
aaj kya koi bosa denge aap

sikka apnā nahīñ jamtā hai tumhāre dil par

sikka apna nahin jamta hai tumhaare dil par
naqsh aghyar ke kis taur se jam jate hain

dil bhī ab pahlū-tahī karne lagā
ho gayā tum sā tumhārī yaad meñ
dil bhi ab pahlu-tahi karne laga
ho gaya tum sa tumhaari yaad mein
jazba-e-ishq chāhiye suufī
jo hai afsurda ahl-e-hāl nahīñ
jazba-e-ishq chahiye sufi
jo hai afsurda ahl-e-haal nahin
ye risāla ishq kā hai adaq tire ġhaur karne kā hai sabaq
kabhī dekh is ko varaq varaq mirā siina ġham kī kitāb hai
ye risala ishq ka hai adaq tere ghaur karne ka hai sabaq
kabhi dekh is ko waraq waraq mera sina gham ki kitab hai

jo ruk gae yahan wo maqam-e-KHatar mein hain
jam ga.e raah meñ ham naqsh-e-qadam kī sūrat
naqsh-e-pā raah dikhāte haiñ ki vo aate haiñ

nafs-e-matlab hī mirā faut huā jaatā hai
jān-e-jānāñ ye munāsib nahīñ ghabrā denā
nafs-e-matlab hi mera faut hua jata hai
jaan-e-jaanan ye munasib nahin ghabra dena
kiyā hai chashm-e-muravvat ne aaj mā.il-e-mehr
maiñ un kī bazm se kal ābdīda aayā thā
kiya hai chashm-e-murawwat ne aaj mail-e-mehr
main un ki bazm se kal aabdida aaya tha
