hai mashq-e-suKHan jari chakki ki mashaqqat bhi
ek turfa tamasha hai 'hasrat' ki tabiat bhi

Hasrat Mohani

aaine mein wo dekh rahe the bahaar-e-husn
aaya mera KHayal to sharma ke rah gae

Hasrat Mohani

guzre bahut ustad magar rang-e-asar mein
be-misl hai 'hasrat' suKHan-e-'mir' abhi tak

Hasrat Mohani

ghurbat ki subh mein bhi nahin hai wo raushni
jo raushni ki sham-e-sawad-e-watan mein tha

Hasrat Mohani

---

gham-e-arzu ka 'hasrat' sabab aur kya bataun
meri himmaton ki pasti mere shauq ki bulandi

Hasrat Mohani

---

---

ghair ki nazron se bach kar sab ki marzi ke KHilaf
wo tera chori-chhupe raaton ko aana yaad hai

Hasrat Mohani

---

---

dopahar ki dhup mein mere bulane ke liye
wo tera koThe pe nange panw aana yaad hai

Hasrat Mohani

---

---

dilon ko fikr-e-do-alam se kar diya aazad
tere junun ka KHuda silsila daraaz kare

Hasrat Mohani

---

dil ko KHayal-e-yar ne maKHmur kar diya
saghar ko rang-e-baada ne pur-nur kar diya

Hasrat Mohani
