Dhota Hun Jab Main Peeney Ko - Mirza Ghalib

Dhota hun jab main peeney ko us seematan k paaun
Rakhta hai zidd se khainck kar bahar lagan k paaun

Di saadagi se jaan parun koh-kan ke paaun
Hain hath kiun na toot gaye peerazaan k paaun

Bhaagey thay hum bohot, so usi ki saza hai ye
Ho kar aseer dabaatey hein raah-zan k paaun

Marham ki justajoo mein phira hun jo duur duur
Tan se siwaa-figaar hein iss khasta-tan k paaun

Allah rey zauq-e-dastan wardi ke ba'ad-e-marg
Hiltey hein khud-ba-khud mere andar kafan ke paaun

Hai josh-e-gul bhaar mein, yaan tak k har taraf
Urtey huey ulajhtay hein murgh-e-chaman k paaun

Shab ko kisi k khuaab mein aaya na ho kahin
Dukhte hein aaj us but-e-naazuk-badan k paun

Ghalib mere kalaam mein kiun kar maza na ho
Peeta hun Khusroo-e-shireen-sukhan k paaun
