Duniya bhula chukaa hoon tumhare khayaal mein - Hazrat Behzad Lakhnawi




Ab hai khushi khusi mein na gham hai malaal mein
Duniya se kho gaya hoon tumhaare khayaal mein

Mujh ko na apna hosh na suniya ka hosh hai
Nast ho ke baitha hoon tumhare khayaal mein

Taron se pooch lo meri rudaad-e-zindagi
Raton ko jaagta hoon tumhaare khayaal mein

Duniya ko ilm kya hai jamaane ko kya khabar
Duniya bhula chukaa hoon tumhare khayaal mein

Duniya khadi hai muntazir-e-nagma-e-alam
�Behzad� chup khade hain kisi ke khayal mein

~ Hazrat Behzad Lakhnawi
