خوب پردہ ہے کہ چلمن سے لگے بیٹھے ہیںKhoob Parda Hai
by Dagh Dehlvi داغ دہلوی Attributed
خوب پردہ ہے کہ چلمن سے لگے بیٹھے ہیں
صاف چھپتے بھی نہیں سامنے آتے بھی نہیں
Khoob parda hai ke chilman se lage baithe hain
Saaf chhupte bhi nahin saamne aate bhi nahin
ख़ूब पर्दा है कि चिलमन से लगे बैठे हैं
साफ़ छुपते भी नहीं सामने आते भी नहीं
