sitamgar tujh se hum kab shikwa-e-bedad karte hain
hamein fariyaad ki aadat hai hum fariyaad karte hain
mataa-e-zindagani aur bhi barbaad karte hain
hum is surat se taskin-e-dil-e-nashad karte hain
hawao ek pal ke waste lillah ruk jao
wo meri arz par dhime se kuchh irshad karte hain
na jaane kyun ye duniya chain se jine nahin deti
koi puchhe hum is par kaun si be-dad karte hain
nazar aata hai un mein beshtar ek narm-o-nazuk dil
masaib ke liye sine ko jo faulad karte hain
KHuda ki maslahat kuchh is mein hogi warna behis but
kise shadan banate hain kise nashad karte hain
nahin dekha kahin jo majra-e-ishq mein dekha
ki ahl-e-dard chup hain chaara-gar fariyaad karte hain
asir-e-daimi gar dil na ho to aur kya ho jab
kahin wo muskura kar ja tujhe aazad karte hain
kiya hoga kabhi aadam ko sajda kahne sunne se
farishte ab kahan parwa-e-adam-zad karte hain
hamein ai dosto chup-chap mar jaana bhi aata hai
taDap kar ek zara dil-jui-e-sayyaad karte hain
bahut sada sa hai ai 'kaif' apne gham ka afsana
wo hum ko bhul baiThe hain jinhen hum yaad karte hain
Ghazal
Sitamgar tujhse hum kab shikwa-e-bedad karte hain
