Hasrat Mohani - Bhulaata laakh hoon (Ghazal)

Aapne chupke chupke raat din ghazal to suni hogi. It was written by Hasrat Mohani. Born Syed Fazl-ul-Hasan in 1875, he was a prominent Indian Urdu poet, freedom fighter, and journalist. He is known for coining the slogan "Inquilab Zindabad" (Long live the revolution), he was a staunch advocate for India's independence.

One of his ashaar that i often quote is -

شعر در اصل ہیں وہی حسرتؔ

سنتے ہی دل میں جو اتر جایئں

Sher darasl hain wohi Hasrat

Sunte hi dil me jo utar jaayen
