apni hi jalwagari hai ye koi aur nahin

usi ka wasf hai maqsud sher-KHwani se

kya hai wo jaan-e-mujassam jis ke shauq-e-did mein

likkhi thi ghazal ye aagara mein

sadr-ara to jahan ho sadr hai

bad ki sohbat mein mat baiTho is ka hai anjam bura

gar dekhiye to KHatir-e-nashad shad hai

uTha hijab to bas din-o-dil diye hi bani

kya ab bhi mujh pe farz nahin dosti-e-kufr

jis ne chashm-e-mast-e-saqi dekh li

dariya ki tarah rawan hun lekin

mana buri KHabar hai pa teri KHabar to hai

ya wafa hi na thi zamane mein

hai ashk-o-ah ras hamare mizaj ko

hai is anjuman mein yaksan adam o wajud mera
