catchy!! thanks for posting this gem. !! I was actually turned off with the beginning but it did pack a mighty wallop in the middle and that mir anis reference was but only necessary, (i think).

my fav:

mere bismilloan ki qana'atain
jo barrhayain zulm ke hoslay
mere aaho'oan ka chakeedah khooN
jo shikaryoan ko suragh de

meri adal gahoan ki maslehat
mere qatiloan ki wakeel hay
meri khaanqaahoaN ki manzilat
meri buzdili ki daleel hay


and oh this...

magar aesay aesay ghani bhi thay
isi qeht e zar e damishq mein
jinhaiN koo-e-yaar azeez tha
jo kharray thay maqtil e ishq main
koi bankpan main tha kohkan
to janooN main Qais sa tha koi
jo surahyaaN liyay jism ki
ma'yay naab-e-khooN se bhari hui

thay sada ba-lub keh piyo piyo!
ye sabeel ehl e safa ki hay
ye nasheed noash-e-badan karo
yeh kasheed taak-e-wafa ki hay

koi tishna lub hi na tha yahaaN
jo pukarta keh idhar idher!
sabhi muft bar thay tamaash beeN
koi baz'm main koi baam par

--------------------------------
damn! I think this was one of the best from whatever i'd read by faraz. shukriya bohut bohut boss.
