phuulo.n kii Tahaniyo.n pe nasheman banaayiye


phuulo.n kii Tahaniyo.n pe nasheman banaayiye 
bijalii gire to jashn-e-charaaGaa.N manaayiye

[Tahanii = branch; nasheman = nest]

kaliyo.n ke ang ang me.n miThaa saa dard hai 
biimaar nikahato.n ko zaraa gud_gudaayiye

[nikahat = fragrance]

kab se sulag rahii hai javaanii kii garm raat 
zulfe.n bikher kar mere pahaluu me.n aayiye

bahakii hu_ii siyaah ghaTaao.n ke saath saath 
jii chaahataa hai shaam-e-abad tak to jaayiye

[shaam-e-abad = unending evening]

sun kar jise havaas me.n ThanDak sii aa base 
aisii ko_ii udaas kahaanii sunaayiye

[havaas = sense and sensibility]

raste pe har qadam pe Kharaabaat hai.n "Adam" 
ye haal ho to kis tarah daaman bachaayiye

[Kharaabaat = wine-bars]
