Lafz To Milte Nahin Izhaar-e-mahsusat Ko, Urdu Ghazal By Talib Baghpati

lafz to milte nahin izhaar-e-mahsusat ko
ab wo samjhen ya na samjhen mere dil ki baat ko

dar-haqiqat tur par musa ko sujhi hi nahin
warna aankhen jazb kar letin tajalliyat ko

meri aage se haTa lo ya to ye mubham kitab
ya palaTne do mujhe auraq-e-maujudat ko

hae mat puchho mariz-e-gham ki kaifiyat-e-karb
nind kya ghaflat si ho jati hi pichhli raat ko

meri aahon mein ba-qaul un ke agar taqat nahin
charKH se phir kyun sitare TuTte hain raat ko

pahle to dil mein KHuda jaane kidhar se aa chhupe
phir sitam ye hai ubhaara mere mahsusat ko

tak raha hai phir koi hasrat se su-e-asman
phir kahin jazba na aa jae tajalliyat ko

munh andhere jab jahan sota hai mad-hoshi ki nind
main suna karta hun saz-e-ruh ke naghmat ko

chandni ho ya andheri mujh ko 'talib' wasta
main to aafat hi samajhta hun hamesha raat ko
