Sarfroshi ki tamanna ab hamare dil meN hai

Dekhna hai zor kitna baazu E Qatil meN hai

Ae shahid E mulk O millat, maiN tere uper nisaar

Ab teri himmat ka charcha Ghair ki mahfil meN hai

Rah rav E raah E muhabbat, rah na jaana raah meN

Lazzat E sehra navardi doori E manzil meN hai

Aaj phir maQtal meN Qatil kah raha hai baar baar
AayeN woh shauQ E shahadat jinke jinke dil meN hai

Marne walo aao ab gardan kataao shauQ se

Yeh Ghaneemat waqt hai, khanjar kaf E Qaatil meN hai

Waqt aane par dikhadeNge tujhe ae aasmaaN

Hum abhi se kyuN batayeN kya hamare dil meN hai

Ab na agle walwale haiN aur na woh armaan ki bheeR

Sirf mit jaane ki hasrat ek dil E bismal meN hai

Khaatir se ya lihaaz se maiN maan to gayaa

JhooTi Qasam se aap ka eemaan to gayaa
Dil leke muft kahte haiN kuch kaam ka nahiN
UlTi shikaayateiN rahiN ehsaan to gayaa
Afshaay E raaz E ishq me go zillataiN huiN
Lekin use jataa to diya, jaan to gayaa
Dekha hai butkade meN jo ae sheikh kuch na kuch
Eemaan ki to ye hai k eemaan to gayaa
Darta hooN dekh kar dil E be-aarzu ko maiN
Sunsaan ghar ye kyuN na ho mehmaan to gayaa
Go naamaabar se khush na hua par hazaar shukr
Mujhko wo mere naam se pahchaan to gayaa
Hosh O hawaas O taab O tavaaN “Daag” ja chuke
Ab hum bhi jaane waale haiN saamaan to gayaa
[Daagh Dehlavi]
 Pahunch se door, chamakta saraab – yaa’ni tu
Mujhe dikhaaya gaya aek khaab – yaa’ni tu
Main jaanta hun babul aur gulaab ke maani
Babool yaani zamaana, gulaab – yaa’ni tu
Jamaaliyaat ko paRhne ka shauq tha, so mujhe
Ataa hua hai mukammal nisaab – yaa’ni tu
KahaaN yeh zarra E taar-k-bakht, yaani main
KahaaN woh noor bhara maahtaab – yaa’ni tu
Badal gayi hai bahut mamlekat mere dil ki
K aagayaa hai yahaaN inqilaab – yaa’ni tu
Har ek Ghazal ko samajhne ka waqt hai na dimaGh
Mujhe bahut hai faqat intekhaab – yaa’ni tu
Kabhi to mere andheroN ko raushni dega
Gurez karta hua maahtaab – yaa’ni tu
Idhar hai koh-kan-e-dasht-e-ishq yaani main
Udhar hai husn E nazaakat ma’aab – yaa’ni tu
UjaaR gulshan E dil ko baRi duaaoN ke baad
Hua naseeb, gul E baaryaab – yaa’ni tu
Bahut taveel sahi daastaan E dil lekin
Bus ek shakhs hai lubb-e-labaab – yaa’ni tu
Kabhi kabhi nazar aata hai dasht E hijraaN mein
JunuN ki pyaas baRhata saraab – yaa’ni tu
Chakhe beghair hi jis ka nasha mukammal hai
Mujhe baham hai ek aisi sharaab – yaa’ni tu
Koi sawaal hai jis ko jawaab milta nahi
Sawaal yaani K ‘Faaris’, jawaab – yaa’ni tu
(Rahman Faaris)
