Meer dariya hai sune sher zabani uski

Meer Taqi Meer ki ghazal.

Ghazal

Meer dariya hai sune sher zabani uskiAllah Allah re tabiyat ki rawani uski

Khatir-e-badiya se der mein jawe gi kahinKhak manind-e-bagoole ke udani uski

Ek hai ahd mein apne woh paraganda mizajApni aankhon mein na aaya koi sani uski

Meenh to bochhar ka dekha hai baraste tum neIsi andaz se thi ashk fishani uski

Baat ki tarz ko dekho to koi jadoo thaPar mili khak mein kya sehr bayani uski

Kar ke taweez rakhein usko bahut bhati haiWoh nazar paon pe woh baat diwani uski

Uska woh ajz tumhara yeh ghuroor khoobiMinnatein un ne bahut kein par na mani uski

Kuch likha hai tujhe har barg pe ae rashk-e-baharRuqa wareen hain yeh auraq-e-khazani uski

Sarguzasht apni kis andoh se shab kehta thaSo gaye tum na suni aah kahani uski

Marsiye dil ke kai keh ke diye logon koShehr Delhi mein hai sab paas nishani uski

Miyan se nikli hi padti thi tumhari talwarKya iwaz chah ka tha khusmi jaani uski

Aable ki si tarah thees lagi phoot baheDardmandi mein gayi saari jawani uski

Ab gaye uske juz afsos nahin kuch hasilHaif sad haif ke kuch qadr na jaani uski

Pas manzar

Yeh ghazal Meer ne khud apne baare mein teesre shakhs mein kahi hai, jaise koi unke marne ke baad unhein yaad kar raha ho: "Meer dariya hai, sune sher zabani uski". Daswein sher mein Delhi ka zikr hai: "Shehr Delhi mein hai sab paas nishani uski"; Rekhta ke taaruf ke mutabiq Meer taqriban chaudah baras ki umr mein Agra se Delhi aaye the². Rekhta par is ghazal ki Shamsur Rahman Faruqi ki qirat mojood hai¹.

Matan ka makhaz: Rekhta par shaya matan, lafz ba lafz¹.
