جب تک دہان زخم نہ پیدا کرے کوئی — مرزا غالب

Jab tak dahan-e-zakhm na paida kare koi

Jab tak dahan-e-zakhm na paida kare koi
Mushkil ke tujh se rah-e-sukhan va kare koi
Aalam ghubar-e-wahshat-e-Majnun hai sar-ba-sar
Kab tak khayal-e-turra-e-Laila kare koi
Afsurdagi nahin tarab-e-inshaa-e-iltifat
Haan dard ban ke dil mein magar ja kare koi
Rone se ae Nadeem malamat na kar mujhe
Aakhir kabhi to uqda-e-dil va kare koi
Chak-e-jigar se jab rah-e-pursish na hui
Kya faida ke jaib ko ruswa kare koi
Lakht-e-jigar se hai rag-e-har khaar-e-shakh-e-gul
Ta chand baghbani-e-sahra kare koi
Na-kami-e-nigah hai barq-e-nazara-soz
Tu wo nahin ke tujh ko tamasha kare koi
Har sang-o-khisht hai sadaf-e-gauhar-e-shikast
Nuqsan nahin junoon se jo sauda kare koi
Sar-bar hui na va'ada-e-sabr-aazma se umar
Fursat kahan ke teri tamanna kare koi
Hai wahshat-e-tabiyat-e-eejad-e-yaas-khez
Yeh dard wo nahin ke na paida kare koi
Bekari-e-junoon ko hai sar peetne ka shughl
Jab haath toot jaen to phir kya kare koi
Husn-e-farogh-e-sham'a-e-sukhan door hai Asadؔ
Pehle dil-e-gudakhta paida kare koi
Wahshat kahan ke be-khudi insha kare koi
Hasti ko lafz-e-ma'ni-e-Anqa kare koi
Jo kuch hai mahv-e-shokhi-e-abroo-e-yaar hai
Aankhon ko rakh ke taaq pe dekha kare koi
Arz-e-sarishk par hai faza-e-zamana tang
Sahra kahan ke da'wat-e-darya kare koi
Wo shokh apne husn pe maghrur hai Asadؔ
Dikha ke us ko aaina toda kare koi
