ye ilm ka sauda ye risale ye kitaben

sharm aati hai ki us shahr mein hum hain ki jahan

dekhun tere hathon ko to lagta hai tere hath

sau chand bhi chamkenge to kya baat banegi

ashaar mere yun to zamane ke liye hain

dilli kahan gain tere kuchon ki raunaqen

humse puchho ki ghazal kya hai ghazal ka fan kya

ek bhi KHwab na ho jin mein wo aankhen kya hain

aahaT si koi aae to lagta hai ki tum ho

aur kya is se ziyaada koi narmi bartun

har-chand etibar mein dhoke bhi hain magar

tujhe banhon mein bhar lene ki KHwahish yun ubharti hai

muaf kar na saki meri zindagi mujhko

fursat-e-kar faqat chaar ghaDi hai yaro

kuchal ke phenk do aankhon mein KHwab jitne hain
