yun bhi kiya hai humne haq-e-dilbari ada

ab mujhse sambhalti nahin ye dard ki saughat

hun wardat ka aini gawah main mujhse

tujhe KHabar hi nahin hai ye qissa-e-kotah

unhen guman ki mujhe un se rabt hai salim

mata-e-dard maal-e-hayat hai shayad

shauq-e-behad ne kisi gam Thaharne na diya

hausla sab ne baDhaya hai mere munsif ka

aks kuchh na badlega aainon ko dhone se

aam hai izn ki jo chaho hawa par likh do

hai meri aankhon mein aks-e-nawishta-e-diwar

hain in mein band kisi ahd-e-rast-KHez ke aks

ab us maqam pe hai mausamon ka sard mizaj
