mana ki sitare sar-e-aflak bahut hain
hum ko bhi hamare KHas-o-KHashak bahut hain
khilte hain kidhar gul dil-e-sad-chaak bahut hain
daman hain kahan dida-e-namnak bahut hain
itna na hanso sahab-e-idrak bahut hain
aahista chalo log tah-e-KHak bahut hain
miTne ko to miT jate hain arbab-e-mohabbat
iksir hain is rah mein kam KHak bahut hain
jis rang mein chaha tujhe us rang mein dekha
lamhe teri furqat ke tarab-nak bahut hain
un ko bhi 'jamil' apne muqaddar se gila hai
wo log jo sunte the ki chaalak bahut hain
Ghazal
Mana ki sitare sar-e-aflak bahut hain
Ataur Rahman Jameel
