It surely bears fruit, though may be delayed 

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

The real is visible in everywhere, provided it is seen with the inner eyes,

He exists in this world as the essence of all the things.

Haram aur dair ke katbey wo dekhey - ‘Seemab’ Akbarabadi

Haram aur dair ke katbey wo dekhey jis ko fursat hai,
Yahaan hadd-e-nazar tak sirf unwaan-e-muhabbat hai;

 Parastaar-e-muhabbat ki muhabbat hi shariyat hai,
Kisi ko yaad kar ke aah kar lenaa ibaadat hai;

Ho ek kiradaar tum bhi merey mamool-e-muhabbat ka,
Mujhe tumse nahin apni muhabbat se muhabbat hai;

Wo kya sajda ? rahe ehsaas jismein sar uthaane ka,
Ibaadat aur ba-qaid-e-hosh tauheen-e-ibaadat hai;

 Meri dewaangi pe hosh waale bahas farmaaein,
Magar pahle unhein deewana ban’ne ki zaroorat hai;

 Maqaam-e-ishq ko har aadmi ‘seemab’ kya samjhe,
Ye hai ek martabaa, jo maawara-e-aadmiyat hai..!!!


~ Hazrat ‘Seemab’ Akbarabadi Sahab
