حیدر علی آتش

English rendering

Chaman mein shab ko jo woh shokh be-naqaab aaya Yaqin ho gaya shabnam ko aaftab aaya In ankhdiyon mein agar nasha-e-sharab aaya Salam jhuk ke karoon ga jo phir hijaab aaya Kisi ke mehram aab-e-rawan ki yaad aai Hubaab ke jo barabar kabhi hubaab aaya Shab-e-firaq mein mujh ko sulane aaya tha Jagaya main ne jo afsana-go ko khwab aaya Adam mein hasti se ja kar yahi kahoon ga main Hazar hasrat-e-zinda ko gaad daab aaya Chakoor-e-husn-e-mah-e-chahar-dah ko bhool gaya Murad par jo tera alam-e-shabab aaya Mohabbat-e-may-o-mashooq tark kar Atish! Safed baal hue mausam-e-khizab aaya
