It's One of my favorite Gazal..........


BY: Mirza Galib

Hazaron Khwahishen Aisi Ki Har Khwahish Pe Dam Nikle
Bahut Nikle Mere Armaan Lekin Phir Bhii Kam Nikle

Nikalanaa Khuld Se Aadam Kaa Sunte Aaye Hain Lekin
Bahut Be-Abaru Hokar Tere Kooche Se Ham Nikale

Mohabbat Mein Nahin Hai Farq Jine Aur Marne Kaa
Usi Ko Dekh Kar Jite Hain Jis Kaafir Pe Dam Nikle

Khudaa Ke Vaaste Pardaa Na Kaabe Se Uthaa Zaalim
Kahiin Aisaa Na Ho Yaan Bhi Vahi Kaafir Sanam Nikle

Kahaan Maikhaane Ka Daravaza 'Ghalib' Aur Kahaan Vaaiz
Par Itana Jaanate Hain Kal Vo Jaataa Tha Ke Ham Nikale

Hazaron Khwahishen Aisi Ki Har Khwahish Pe Dam Nikle
Bahut Nikale Mere Armaan Lekin Phir Bhii Kam Nikle
