Urdu Poem: Mirza Ghalib: Dard Ki Dawa Pai

Kehtay ho "nah dein gay ham, dil ko agar parra paya"
Dil kahan keh gum kachay, ham nay mudd'aa paya
Ishq say, tabi'at nay, zeest ka maza paya
Dard ki dawa pai, dard bay-dawa paya
Dost daray dushman hay, a-tamad dil ma'lum!
Ah bay-asar dekhi, nalah na-rasa paya
Sadgi-o-purkari, bekhudi-o-hoshyari
Husm ko taghaful mein, jurrat-aazma paya
Ghunch phir laga khilnay, aaj ham nay apna dil paya
Khon kiya huwa dekha, gum kiya huwa paya
Hal-e-dil nahi ma'lum, lekin iis qadar, ya'ni
Ham nay baar-ha dhunda, tum nay baar-ha paya
Shoray panday naseh nay zakham par namak chirka
Aap say koi puchay, tum nay kiya maza paya
