of the Mehfil-e-Gazal family:


aarazuu hai vafaa kare ko_ii
jii na chaahe to kyaa kare ko_ii


gar marz ho davaa kare ko_ii
marane vaale kaa kyaa kare ko_ii

[marz = illness]


koste hai.n jale hue kyaa kyaa
apane haq me.n duaa kare ko_ii

[kosanaa = to curse]


un se sab apanii apanii kahate hai.n
meraa matalab adaa kare ko_ii


tum saraapaa ho suurat-e-tasviir
tum se phir baat kyaa kare ko_ii

[saraapaa = from head to toe; suurat-e-tasviir = like a picture]


jis me.n laakho.n baras kii huure.n ho.n
aisii jannat ko kyaa kare ko_ii

[huur = fairy; jannat = paradise]
