in ghazalan-e-tarah-dar ko kaise chhoDun

thoDi der ai saqi bazm mein ujala hai

main to kahta hun tumhi dard ke darman ho zarur

sarhad-e-fana tak bhi tirgi nahin aai

hum aise log jald asir-e-KHizan hue

kabhi kabhi arz-e-gham ki KHatir hum ek bahana bhi chahte hain

tumhein mere KHayal ki musawwiri qubul ho

ban gai hai maut kitni KHush-ada mere liye

subh-dam bhi yun fasurda ho gaya

ab ayaadat ko meri koi nahin aaega

phulon ke des chand sitaron ke shahr mein

shagufta bachchon ka chehra dikhai dene lage

wo chehre jo the husn ke tufan ki tarah

gham par hain tana-zan to KHushi bhi nibhaiye

ye abr-o-baad ye tufan ye andheri raat
