Tumhe hum wali samajhte agar badaa khuwar na hota

Re: Poet of the Month - Mirza Ghalib
Whenever Ghalib is mentioned, One incident comes in my mind, that is after fall of delhi, the british personnel asked him "are you muslim" he answered "half", "what does half mean" asked the british personnel, to which he replied "I drink wine but I don't eat pork:D

Bazeecha-e-atfal hai dunia meray agay
Hota hai shab o roz tamasha meray aagay
Eik khail hai o rung suleman meray nazdeek
Eik baat hai Ajaz masiha meray aagay
Juz naam nahi sourat aalam mujhay manzoor
Juz waham nahi hasti ashya meray aagay
Hota hai nihan gird main sehra meray hotay
Ghista hai jabeen khak pay darya meray aagay
Mat pocho k kia haal hai mera teray peechay
Tu daikh k kia rung hai tera meray aagay
Such kehtay ho khud bain o khud ara hon, na kion hon
Baitha hai but aaeenay seema meray aagay
Phir daikhya andaz gul afshani meray aagay
Nafrat ka guman guzray hai main rashak say guzaar
Kion kar kahon lo naam na un ka meray aagay
Iman mujhay rokay hai jo khinchay hai mujhay kufar
Kaaba meray peechay hai kalisa meray aagay
Re: Poet of the Month - Mirza Ghalib
***Dard minnat kashe-e-dawa na hua,
main na achha hua, bura na hua,
jama karte ho kyon raqeebon ko,
ek tamasha hua gila na hua,
Hum kahan qismat aazmaane jaayein,
tu hi jab khanjar aazmaa na hua,
Kitne shireen hai tere lab ke raqeeb,
gaaliyaan khake bemaza na hua,
hai khabar garm unke aane ki,
aaj hi ghar mein boriya na hua,
Kya wo namarood ki khudayi thi,
bandagi mein mera bhala na hua,
Jaan di, di hui usi ki thi,
haq to yun hai ke haq ada na hua,
Zakhm gar dab gaya lahoo na thama,
kaam gar ruk gaya rawaan na hua...
Rahazani hai ke dil sitanee hai,
leke dil, dil sitaan rawaan na hua,
Kucch to padhiye ke log kehte hai,
aaj 'ghalib' gazal sara na hua...***

Bas ke Dushwaar Hai Har kaam Ka Asaan Hona
Aadmi Ko Bhi Mayessar Nahin Insaan Hona
Ki Mere Qatl Ke baad Usne Jafaa Se Tauba
Haaye Us Zoode Passhemaan ka Pashemaan Hona
Haif Us Chaar Girah Kapray Ki Qismat Ghalib
Jis Ki Qismat Main Ho Aashiq ka Garebaan Hona

Kaabe Kis Munh Se jaaogay Ghalib
Sharm Tum Ko Magar Nahin Aati
Hum Ko Maaloom Hai Jannat Ki Haqeeqat Lakin
Dil Ko Khush Rakhne Ko Ghalib Yeh Khayal Accha hai
Re: Poet of the Month - Mirza Ghalib
Aaina kyu na doon ke tamasha kahe jise
Aisa kaha se laau ke tujhasa kahe jise
Hasrat ne la rakha teri bazm-e-khayal me
Guldasta-e-nigaah suveda kahe jise
Phoonka hai kisne goshe mohabbat mein aye khuda
Afasuun-e-intazar tamanna kahe jise
Sar par hajum-e-dard-e-garibi se daliye
Wo ek musht-e-khak ke sahara kahe jise
Hai chashm-e-tar me hasarat-e-diidar se niha
Shauq-e-ina gusekhta dariya kahe jise
Darakar hai shiguftan-e-gul haye aish ko
Sub_h-e-bahar paba-e-miina kahe jise
“ghalib” bura na man jo vaiz bura kahe
Aisa bhii koii hai ke sab achchha kahe jise
