ab to utni bhi mayassar nahin mai-KHane mein
jitni hum chhoD diya karte the paimane mein

the tavern does not even give that much wine to me
that I was wont to waste in the goblet casually

Divakar Rahi

abas ilzam mat do mushkilat-e-rah ko 'rahi'
tumhaare hi irade mein kami malum hoti hai

Divakar Rahi

agar ai naKHuda tufan se laDne ka dam-KHam hai
idhar kashti na le aana yahan pani bahut kam hai

Divakar Rahi

agar maujen Dubo detin to kuchh taskin ho jati
kinaron ne Duboya hai mujhe is baat ka gham hai

Divakar Rahi

ain-fitrat hai ki jis shaKH pe phal aaenge
inkisari se wahi shaKH lachak jaegi

Divakar Rahi

aat haq hai to phir qubul karo
ye na dekho ki kaun kahta hai

Divakar Rahi

ahut aasan hai do ghunT pi lena to ai 'rahi'
baDi mushkil se aate hain magar aadab-e-mai-KHana

Divakar Rahi

---

ghusse mein barhami mein ghazab mein itab mein
KHud aa gae hain wo mere KHat ke jawab mein

Divakar Rahi

is daur-e-taraqqi ke andaz nirale hain
zehnon mein andhere hain saDkon pe ujale hain

Divakar Rahi
