khubsurat kalam

Kafir ki is ada ne bas mujhko mar dala :angra'i bhi woh lene na pa'e utha ke hath

Kaya bala he khushi khuda jane : ham to bas nam sunte aa'e hen (khumar)

Hamne apni muflisi ka is tarah rakha bharam : waste kam kr diye mghrur kehlane lage

Wo jan hi ga'e k hame unse pyar he : ankho ki mukhbari ka maza hamse puchhiye

Bhule hen rafta rafta unhe muddaton me ham : qiston me khudkushi ka maza ham se puchhiye

Herat he tumko dekh ke masjid me aye khumar : kya bat ho ga'i Jo khuda yad aa gaya

Mot aaye to din phiren shayad : zindagi ne to mar dala he

Waqt parne pe hamne ye jana he : Jo he apna wo hi begana he

Ye kehna tha unse muhabbat he mujhko : ye kehne me mujhko zamane lage hen

Badi jan lewa hen mazi ki yaden : bhulane ko ji bhi nahi chahta he

Unse kuchh kene hi nahi deti : ye jo ek chiz dil ki dharkan he

Ha'e re unki yad ka alam : me ye samjha ki khud wo aa'e hen

Meherbani khukus hamdardi : hamne kya kya fareb khaey hen

Rat baqi thi jab wo bhichhre the : kat ga'i umr rat baqi he

Na wo dil he na wo shabab khumar : kisliye ab hayat baqi he

^ wa alaikum assalam, sister : these are ash'aar of different shu'ra. Most of them belong to Khumar sahab. He was a great poet of this age. I shall be pleased if you share something in Urdu, either in this thread or any other.
