rah gae ashkon mein laKHt-e-jigar aate aate
ruk gae bahr se lal-o-gohar aate aate
tham gae qatra-e-KHun-e-jigar aate aate
ruk gae mujmar-e-dil se sharar aate aate
hote hote na hua misra-e-rangin mauzun
band kyun ho gaya KHun-e-jigar aate aate
tham gae ashk mere aankh se Dhalte Dhalte
rah gae chashm-e-sadaf se guhar aate aate
rah gaya kahne pe ghammazon ke sun sun ke meri
phir gaya yar mera rah par aate aate
de diya naqd-e-dil us but ko baghair az jaane
ho gaya rah mein kaisa zarar aate aate
dekhte dekhte dekhenge mere jauhar-e-taba
aaenge aaenge ahl-e-nazar aate aate
kya bhara zang-e-kudurat se ye aaina-dil
jo nazar aae na wo phir nazar aate aate
gardish-e-chashm ne kis ko tah-o-baala na kiya
ho gae zer-o-zabar rah par aate aate
ashk-e-KHuni nahin aate hain jo aankhon se teri
kyun ruki 'muntahi' dil ki KHabar aate aate
Ghazal
Rah gae ashkon mein laKHt-e-jigar aate aate
Mirza Maseeta Beg Muntahi
