kabhii nekii bhii usake jii men aa jaaye - Mirza Ghalib

kabhii nekii bhii usake jii men aa jaaye hai mujhase

jafaayen karake apanii yaad sharmaa jaaye hai mujhase

khudaayaa! Jazbaa-e-dil kii magar taasiir ulatii hai

ki jitanaa khenchataa huun aur khinchataa jaaye hai mujhase

vo bad khuu aur merii daastan-e-ishq tuulaaniii

ibaarat mukhtasar, qaasid bhii ghabaraa jaaye hai mujhase

udhar vo badagumaanii hai, idhar ye naatavanii hai

naa puuchhaa jaaye hai usase, na bolaa jaaye hai mujhase

sanbhalane de mujhe ae naaumiidii, kyaa qayaamat hai

ki daamaane khayaale yaar chhuutaa jaaye hai mujhase

takalluf bar taraf nazzaaragii men bhii sahii, lekin

vo dekhaa jaaye, kab ye zulm dekhaa jaaye hai mujhase

hue hain paanv hii pahale nabard-e-ishq men zakhmii

na bhaagaa jaaye hai mujhase, na thaharaa jaaye hai mujhase

qayaamat hai ki hove muddaii kaa hamsafar ‘ghalib’

vo kaafir, jo khudaa ko bhii na saunpaa jaaye hai mujhase
