husn kafir tha ada qatil thi baaten sehr thin

abhi aate nahin us rind ko aadab-e-mai-KHana

wo tabassum hai ki ghaalib ki tarah-dar ghazal

jahan mein ho gai na-haq teri jafa badnam

sahil ke sukun se kise inkar hai lekin

jo tere dar se uTha phir wo kahin ka na raha

ab dhanak ke rang bhi un ko bhale lagte nahin

kuchh to hai waise hi rangin lab o ruKHsar ki baat

hum jis ke ho gae wo hamara na ho saka

ye kya ghazab hai jo kal tak sitam-rasida the

aati hai dhaar un ke karam se shuur mein

bastiyan kuchh huin viran to matam kaisa

log mange ke ujale se hain aise marub

hasti ke bhayanak nazzare sath apne chale hain duniya se

tumhaari maslahat achchhi ki apna ye junun behtar
