Dosto,

Mai Mehdi Hassan sahib ki ga-ee hui Danish sahib ki ghazal seek raha
hoo. Tape ko sun kar mujhe ye alfaaz mile hain.

Shayar - Danish

Na siyo hooth na khwabo main Sada do hum ko
Masli-hat ka yeh takaza hai bhhulaa do un ko

Hum hakikat hai-n to tasleem na kar ka sabak
Haan agar harf-e-galat hain to mita do hum ko

Shorse Ishq main hai Husn barabar ka sharekh
Sooch kar jurm -e-mohabbat ki saza do humko

Maksade zist gum-e-ishq hai sehra ho ke shahar
Baith jaa-enge jahaan chaaho betha do hum ko
--------
Aap say guzarish hai ke inhain durust kar dain aur
inke maai-ne bata dain.

Zehmut ke liye muafi chahta hoon. Bohut bohut shukria

An amended version is given below :

Na siyo hoNT na KH(w)aaboN men sada do hum ko
Maslehat ka yeh taqaaza hai bhula do hum ko

Hum haqeeqat haiN to tasleem (.......not decipherable)
HaaN agar harf-e-GHalat haiN to miTa do hum ko

Shorish-e-'ishq (?) men hai husn baraabar ka shareek
Soch kar jurm-e-mohabbat ki saza do hum ko

Maqsad-e-zeest GHam-e-'ishq hai, sehra ho ke shahr
BaiTh jaayeNge jahaaN chaaho biTha do hum ko

I have not heard the ghazal and the amendments are based
purely on what I think the (amended) words really are.
At one place, I could not decipher some of the words.

"Maslehat" means "expediency".

Masli-hat ka yeh takaza hai bhhulaa do un ko

Sadaa =aawaaz

----------------------

Hum hakikat hai-n to tasleem na kar ka sabak
Haan agar harf-e-galat hain to mita do hum ko

sabab = wajh, kaaran, "reason"
Harf = "letter", akchhar

------------------------

Shorse Ishq main hai Husn barabar ka sharekh
Sooch kar jurm -e-mohabbat ki saza do humko

(shroish-e-i'shq meN hai Husn baraabar kaa shareek
soch kar jurm-e-muHabbat kee sazaa do ham ko)

shorish = haNgaamah, uth`al-puth`al, muSeebat
Husn = "literally :beauty: but used here for the beloved"
shareek = shaamil, "partner"
jurm = "crime"
jurm-e-muHabbat = muHabbat kaa jurm
---------------------------------

Maksade zist gum-e-ishq hai sehra ho ke shahar
Baith jaa-enge jahaan chaaho betha do hum ko

(maqSad-e-zeest Gham-e-i'shq hai SeHraa ho keh shehr
baiTh` jaaYeN ge jahaaN chaaho biTh` do ham ko)
