mera nishan bhi DhunDh ghubar-e-mah-o-aKHtar mein

na abr se tera saya na tu nikalta hai

aks-e-falak par aaina hai raushan aab zaKHiron ka

hawa mein uDta koi KHanjar jata hai

taza hai uski mahak raat ki rani ki tarah

lahr lahr kya jagmag jagmag hoti hai

pahle mujhko bhi KHayal-e-yar ka dhoka hua

mauzu-e-suKHan himmat-e-ali hi rahegi

bahaar kaun si tujh mein jamal-e-yar na thi

bujhte suraj ne liya phir ye sambhaala kaisa

main aks-e-arzu tha hawa le gai mujhe

aalam se fuzun tera aalam nazar aata hai

rang-e-ghazal mein dil ka lahu bhi shamil ho

KHak aaina dikhati hai ki pahchan mein aa

kab talak ye shola-e-be-rang manzar dekhiye
