Ghazal of Khumar Barabankvi

durii ke Gam kuchh aur sivaa ho ke rah gaye

ham un se kyaa mile ke judaa ho ke rah gaye

khoye hue the der se vo merii yaad mein

mujh par nazar parii to Khafaa ho ke rah gaye

phir doston ko main ne pai mashq de diye

jo tiir mujh tak aaye Khataa ho ke rah gaye

majabuur ho ke maangii thii lutf-o-karam kii bhiik

lutf-o-karam bhii jor-o-jafaa ho ke rah gaye

ab kyaa rahaa tere liye ai ishq naamuraad

ab vo bhii mubtilaa-e-vafaa ho ke rah gaye

Allaah aaiinaa to kabhii dekh lo 'Khumaar'

tum kyaa the aur ishq mein kyaa ho ke rah gaye

(Khumar Barabankvi)

haal-e-Gam un ko sunaate jaayiye

shart ye hai ke muskuraate jaayiye

aap ko jaate na dekhaa jaayegaa

shammaa ko pahale bujhaate jaayiye

shukriyaa lutf-e-musal_sal kaa magar

gaahe gaahe dil ko dukhaate jaayiye

dushmano.n se pyaar hotaa jaayegaa

dosto.n ko aazamaate jaayiye

raushnii mahaduud ho jin kii 'Khumaar'

un charaaGo.n ko bujhaate jaayiye

(Khumar Barabankvi)

mujh ko shikast-e-dil kaa mazaa yaad aa gayaa

Akele Hain Wo Aur Jhunjula Rahe Hain

Meri Yaad Se Jung Farma Rahe Hain

Elahi mere dost hon khairiyat se

Ye kyon ghar mein pathar nahi aa rahe hain

Bahut khush hai gustakhiyon par hamari

Ba-zahir jo barham nazar aa rahe hain

Ye kaisi hawa-e-taraqee chali hai

Diye to diye, dil bujhe jaa rahe hain

Bahisht tasawur ke jalwe hain main hoon

Judaee salamat maze aa rahe hain

Baharon mein bhi mai se parhaiz tauba

Khumar aap kaafir huye jaa rahe hain

Qayamat Khaiz hai Uski Judaee Ka Sama.n Ab Tak

Qayamat Khaiz hai Uski Judaee Ka Sama.n Ab Tak

Nigahen Hain Meri Mannjumla Aah-o-faga.n Ab Tak

Ye Mana Apni Chashm-e-tar Darya Hai Ravaa.n Ab Tak

Magar Dil Mein Jo Toofan Tha, Wo Dil Mein Hai Niha.n Ab Tak

Ghum Nana Nahi Aalooda Aah-o-faga.n Ab Tak

Bahut Hi Shadmaan Hai Khatir Shadmaa.n Ab Tak

Hum unse Badghuman Hain Hum Se Wo Badghuma.n Ab Tak

Khuda Rakhe Mohabbat Ko, Mohabbat Hai Javaa.n Ab Tak

Hazaron Ashiyaan Ban Jaayenge Gulshan Jo Baqi Hai

Nahi Samjhe Ye Nukta Ashiqaane Ashiyaan Ab Tak

Jhatak Kar Daman Apna Tum Toh Rukhshat Ho Gaye Lekin

Nahi Sambhla Nahi Sambhala Khumar Natava.n Ab Tak

Ankhon Ke Charagon Mein Ujale Na Rahenge

Ankhon Ke Charagon Mein Ujale Na Rahenge

Aa Jao Ke Phir Dekhne Wale Na Rahenge

Jaa Shauq se Lekin Palat Aane Ke Liye Jaa

Hum Dair Tak Apne Ko Sambhale Na Rahenge

Ai Zauq Safar Khair Ho Nazdeek Hai Manzil

Sab Kahte Hain Ab Paaon Mein Chhale Na Rahenge

Jin Naalon Ki Ho Jaye Ta Dost Rasaaee

Woh Sana hi Ban Jaaenge, Naale Na Rahenge

Shamen Jo Bujhen, Bujhne De Dil Bujhne Na Pae

Ye Shama Hoye Gul Toh Ujale Na Rahenge

Kyon Zulmate Ghum Se Ho Khumar Itne Pareshan

Baadal Ye Hamesha Hi Toh kaale Na Rahenge
