غیر ہو ناشاد کیوں کیسی کہی

چاہتا ہوں داد کیوں کیسی کہی

ghair ho nashad kyun kaisi kahi

chahta hun daad kyun kaisi kahi

پہلے گالی دی سوال وصل پر

پھر ہوا ارشاد کیوں کیسی کہی

pahle gaali di saval-e-vasl par

phir hua irshad kyun kaisi kahi

تم نے دل کی بات کیوں کیسی سنی

ہم نے یہ روداد کیوں کیسی کہی

tum ne dil ki baat kyun kaisi suni

ham ne ye rudad kyun kaisi kahi

Link to this couplet

تو بھی اے ناصح کسی پر جان دے

ہاتھ لا استاد کیوں کیسی کہی

tu bhi ai naseh kisi par jaan de

haath la ustad kyun kaisi kahi

About this ghazal

A witty ghazal built on the refrain "kyun, kaisi kahi?" (well, how was that for a line?): the poet asks for praise after every turn, from the beloved's insult at a request to meet to the advisor who is dared to fall in love himself. 2 couplets of the original are not included here.
