kaTti hai shab visal ki palken jhapakte hi

gham uThata hun ghazal kahta hun jita rahta hun

lafzon ke her-pher se banti nahin ghazal

KHud ko kabhi main pa na saka

ji chahta hai tark-e-mohabbat ko bar bar

garche halka sa dhundlaka hai tasawwur bhi tera

aur thoDa sa bikhar jaun yahi Thani hai

bahut udas hain diwaren unche mahlon ki
