pech rakhate ho bahut saaj-o-dastaar ke biich


pech rakhate ho bahut saaj-o-dastaar ke biich
mai.n ne sar girate hue dekhe hai.n baazaar ke biich

[pech = anger; saaj-o-dastaar = turban]

gul_farosh aaj bahut jamaa hai.n gul_zaar ke biich

[ranj = sorrow; gul_farosh = flower sellers]

kaj adaao.n kii inaayat hai ki ham se ushshaaq
kabhii diivaar ke piichhe kabhii diivaar ke biich

[kaj - crooked; ushshaaq = lovers]

tum ho naa_Khush to yahaa.N kaun hai Khush phir bhi 'Faraz'
log rahate hai.n isii shahar-e-dil-e-aazaar ke biich
