Ye Khayal Accha Hai

बूगनबेल by Neha 

Aur bazaar se le aaye agar toot gayaa
Saagar-e-Jam se mera jaam-e-sifaal achaa hai

unke dekhe se jo aa jaati hai munh par raunaq,
woh samajhtey hain ke beemaar ka haal achaa hai

dekhiye  paate hain  ushshaaq buton se kya faiz,
ik brahman ne kaha hai, ke yeh saal achaa hai

ham ko ma.alūm hai jannat kī haqīqat lekin
dil ke ḳhush rakhne ko 'ġhālib' ye ḳhayal achaa hai

- Mirza Ghalib

Dard ka hudd se guzarna

Pollard Willows with Setting Sun by Van Gogh - 1888

Ishrate qatrah hai, dariya mein fana ho jana

Dard ka hudd se guzarna hee dawa ho jana

Tujh se qismat mein reri soorate qafle abjad

Tha likha, baat ke bante hi juda ho jana

Dil hua kashmakash charai zahmat mein tamam

Mit gaya ghisne mein is uqdey ka wa ho jana

Ab jafa se bhi hain mahroom hum allah allah!

Is qader dushmane arbabe wafa ho jana!

Zof se giryah mubaddil bah dam serd hawa

Bawer aaya hamein pani ka hawa ho jana

Dil se mitna teri angusht hinaee ka khayal

Ho gaya gosht se nakhun ka zuda ho jana

Hai mujhe abre bahari ka baras ker khulna

Rote rote game furqat mein fana ho jana

Gar nahin nikhate gul ko tere koche ki hawas

Kiyon hai girde rahe jolane saba ho jana

Bakhshe hain jalwai gul joshe tamasha Ghalib!

Chashm ko chahiye her rang mein wa ho jana

Taki tujh per khule ajaz hawai saiqal

Daikh bersatmein sabz aiene ka ho jana

- Mirza Ghalib
