aag ka kya hai pal do pal mein lagti hai
bujhte bujhte ek zamana lagta hai
Kaif Bhopali
ek naya zaKHm mila ek nai umr mili
jab kisi shahr mein kuchh yar purane se mile
Kaif Bhopali
is gulistan ki yahi rit hai ai shaKH-e-gul
tu ne jis phul ko pala wo paraya hoga
Kaif Bhopali
janab-e-'kaif' ye dilli hai 'mir' o 'ghaalib' ki
yahan kisi ki taraf-dariyan nahin chaltin
Kaif Bhopali
jis din meri jabin kisi dahliz par jhuke
us din KHuda shigaf mere sar mein Dal de
Kaif Bhopali
'kaif' paida kar samundar ki tarah
wusaten KHamoshiyan gahraiyan
Kaif Bhopali
'kaif' pardes mein mat yaad karo apna makan
ab ke barish ne use toD giraya hoga
Kaif Bhopali
kaise manen ki unhen bhul gaya tu ai 'kaif'
un ke KHat aaj hamein tere sirhane se mile
Kaif Bhopali
