Ghazal
चलते हो तो चमन को चलिए कहते हैं कि बहाराँ है
This ghazal celebrates the beauty and vibrancy of life when shared with a beloved. The poet suggests that simply by walking with the beloved, the garden (Chaman) appears like a spring festival (Baharaan). It describes the intoxicating, colorful, and sometimes painful experience of love, comparing life's journey to a tavern (Maykhana) filled with deep emotions.

चलते हो तो चमन को चलिए कहते हैं कि बहाराँ है
पात हरे हैं फूल खिले हैं कम-कम बाद-ओ-बाराँ है
When you walk, they say the garden is spring, that it is a torrent of bloom,
The leaves are green, the flowers have blossomed, but the breeze is faint, a soft sigh.
When you walk, they say the garden is spring, that it is a torrent of bloom. The leaves are green and the flowers have blossomed, but the breeze is faint.

रंग हवा से यूँ टपके है जैसे शराब चुवाते हैं
आगे हो मय-ख़ाने के निकलो अहद-ए-बादा-गुसाराँ है
As if color drips from the air, like wine being sipped,
Step out to the tavern, for the era of wine-drinking has arrived.
The color drips from the air as if wine is being sipped; now go to the tavern, for the era of wine-drinking has begun.

इश्क़ के मैदाँ-दारों में भी मरने का है वस्फ़ बहुत
या'नी मुसीबत ऐसी उठाना कार-ए-कार-गुज़ाराँ है
Even among the warriors of love, there is a description of dying,
Meaning, it is a great ordeal to earn a living.

दिल है दाग़ जिगर है टुकड़े आँसू सारे ख़ून हुए
लोहू पानी एक करे ये इश्क़-ए-लाला-अज़ाराँ है
My heart is stained, my liver is in pieces, all tears have turned to blood; this love for the beloved is a mixture of blood and water.
My heart is stained, my liver is in pieces, and all tears have turned to blood; this love for the beloved is a mixture of blood and water.

कोहकन ओ मजनूँ की ख़ातिर दश्त-ओ-कोह में हम न गए
इश्क़ में हम को 'मीर' निहायत पास-ए-इज़्ज़त-दाराँ है
For the sake of Kohakan and Majnu, we did not go into the desert and mountains; in love, we are, 'Mir', extremely near to the keepers of honor.
