Dar Pe Us ShoKH Ke Jab Ja BaiTha, Urdu Ghazal By Mirza Maseeta Beg Muntahi

dar pe us shoKH ke jab ja baiTha
yar sab kahte hain achchha baiTha

KHubi-e-qismat-e-qasid dekho
pas us shoKH ke kya ja baiTha

hai habab-e-lab-e-dariya insan
jab zara sar ko uThaya baiTha

zoaf-e-piri se bana naqsh-e-qadam
main wahin ka hua jis ja baiTha

surat-e-baad raha sar-gardan
KHak ki tarah main uTTha baiTha

panw phule jo tere kuche mein
kaT ke dast-e-tamanna baiTha

bahr-e-hasti mein hababon ki tarah
saikDon bar main uTTha baiTha

kab se tera falak-e-shoabada-baz
dekhta hun main tamasha baiTha

samne kis ke jhukaya sar ko
kis liye shaiKH tu uTTha baiTha

na to nala hai na afghan ai dil
kis liye chup hai akela baiTha

KHwab-e-sair-e-chaman-e-alam hai
kya dil-e-zar hai phula baiTha

daman-e-dil pe laga dagh-e-junun
mulk par ishq ka sikka baiTha

naqd-e-dil tha jo bizaat mein meri
ishq mein us ko bhi kho-kha baiTha

jo gaya mulk-e-adam kaun gaya
us ke kuche mein jo baiTha baiTha

dil ko hai jazba-e-ulfat shayad
bak raha hai jo akela baiTha

chal base 'muntahi' sab yar tere
tu yahan karta hai ab kya baiTha
