Mirza Ghalib

aah ko chaahiye ik umr asar hone tak

kaun jiitaa hai terii zulf ke sar hone tak

daam har mauj me.n hai halqaa-e-sad_kaam-e-nahang

dekhe.n kyaa guzare hai qatare pe gauhar hone tak

aashiqii sabr-talab aur tamannaa betaab

dil kaa kyaa rang karuu.N Khuun-e-jigar hone tak

ham ne maanaa ke taGaaful na karoge lekin

Khaak ho jaaye.nge ham tum ko Khabar hone tak

partav-e-Khuur se hai shabanam ko fanaa kii taaliim

mai.n bhii huu.N ek inaayat kii nazar hone tak
