naqsh fariyaadii hai kis kii shokhii-e-tahariir kaa - Mirza Ghalib

naqsh fariyaadii hai kis kii shokhii-e-tahariir kaa

kaagazii hai pairahan har paikar-e-tasviir kaa

kaave-kaave sakhtjaanii haaye tanhaaii na puuchh

subah karanaa shaam kaa laanaa hai juu-e-shiir kaa

jazbaa-e-beikhtiyaar-e-shauq dekhaa chaahiye

siinaa-e-shamshiir se baahar hai dam shamshiir kaa

aagahii daam-e-shuniidan jis qadar chaahe bichhaaye

muddaa anqaa hai apane aalam-e-taqariir kaa

bas ke huun 'ghalib' asiirii men bhii aatish zar-e-pa

muu-e-aatishdiidaa hai halqaa merii zanjiir kaa
