Ghazal 44: kyaa bataayeN kih hai kyaa deed-e-ruKh-e-yaar ka lutf!*




kyaa bataayeN k. hai kyaa deed-e-ruKh-e-yaar ka lutf!
jaise maikash ko mile saaGhar-e-sarshaar ka lutf

uski har tarz-e-gul.afshaani-e-guftaar ka lutf!
marhabaa, anjuman.aaraai-e-sarkaar ka lutf!

naaz-o-andaaz-o-adaa, shoKhi-o-pindaar ka lutf!
kya bayaaN keejiye us husn ke atvaar ka lutf!

==::Q::==
fasl-e-gul meiN bhi uThaanaa hi paRaa Khaar ka lutf
meri taqdeer meiN thaa kab gul-o-gulzaar ka lutf?

bazm-e-farhat, na koee anjuman-e- 'aish-o-tarab!
saaz-e-pur.soz, na paa.zeb ki jhankaar ka lutf!

ranj-e- naumeedi-e-jaaved ka maaraa huaa dil!
ham.navaa hai, na kaheeN suhbat-e-Gham.Khwaar ka lutf!
==::::==

haaye voh ambareeN kaakul, voh qad-e-sarv-e-sahee!
kaash haasil ho kabhi yooN rasan-o-daar ka lutf (1)

ham ne maana k. bahaaroN ka yeh mausam hai, magar
dil agar shaad na ho, kyaa mile gulzaar ka lutf?

dushman-e-dil hai barahman, hai 'udoo 'aql ka shaiKh
ab na tasbeeh ki lazzat hai, na zunnaar ka lutf!

gar na ho Gham to Khushi ke haiN bhalaa kyaa m'ani?
lutf hota hai kaheeN 'ishrat-e-bisyaar ka lutf?

chheRti rehti hai rag rag ko yeh mizraab-e-alam
aur uThaata hooN bahut shauq se har taar ka lutf

pursish-e-haal ki chaahat, na zaroorat hai mujhe
'ishq meiN sab se judaa hai dil-e-beemaar ka lutf!

maa'il-e-sh'er kiyaa, de ke, usee ne 'naadaaN'
tab'a`e-naazuk, jigar-e- tishna`e-aazaar ka lutf!
