Wo kaam kyun karein jise dil maantaa na ho - Seemab Akbarabadi

Barbaad husn-e-zan se maal-e-wafaa na ho !
Aisa na ho ke haqq-e-muhabbat ataa na ho !

Hoon aashna-e-dost, mujhe kyun ataa na ho ?
Aisi jabeen jo dair-o-haram se aashnaa na ho !

Phir chaahta hoon raabta husn-o-ishq se,
Wo ibtada ke jis ki koi intehaa na ho !

Wo sar-khushi ka waqt hai jab kaayenaat mein,
Dil bolta ho aur aur koi boltaa na ho !

Rahne de imtiyaaz ke parde pade huye,
Aye husn ! har naqaab se jalwanumaa na ho !

Mahw-e-khudi na ho jo wo kaafir to kya kare,
Jis ki nazar mein hadd-e-khudi tak Khuda na ho !

'Seemab' tark-e-ishq-o-gham-e-zindagi galat,
Wo kaam kyun karein jise dil maantaa na ho !

Haram aur dair ke katbey wo dekhey - ‘Seemab’ Akbarabadi

Haram aur dair ke katbey wo dekhey jis ko fursat hai,
Yahaan hadd-e-nazar tak sirf unwaan-e-muhabbat hai;

 Parastaar-e-muhabbat ki muhabbat hi shariyat hai,
Kisi ko yaad kar ke aah kar lenaa ibaadat hai;

Ho ek kiradaar tum bhi merey mamool-e-muhabbat ka,
Mujhe tumse nahin apni muhabbat se muhabbat hai;

Wo kya sajda ? rahe ehsaas jismein sar uthaane ka,
Ibaadat aur ba-qaid-e-hosh tauheen-e-ibaadat hai;

 Meri dewaangi pe hosh waale bahas farmaaein,
Magar pahle unhein deewana ban’ne ki zaroorat hai;

 Maqaam-e-ishq ko har aadmi ‘seemab’ kya samjhe,
Ye hai ek martabaa, jo maawara-e-aadmiyat hai..!!!


~ Hazrat ‘Seemab’ Akbarabadi Sahab
