usi ka wasf hai maqsud sher-KHwani se

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

dariya ki tarah rawan hun lekin

tu hi zahir hai tu hi baatin hai

sab kuchh to kiya humne pa kuchh bhi na kiya hae

tarif us KHuda ki jis ne jahan banaya

mana buri KHabar hai pa teri KHabar to hai

likkhi thi ghazal ye aagara mein

hai is anjuman mein yaksan adam o wajud mera

kya fikr-e-ab-o-nan ki gham kah raha hai ab

tu na ho ye to ho nahin sakta

han dil-e-be-tab chande intizar

izhaar-e-haal ka bhi zariya nahin raha

mar chuke jite-ji KHusha qismat

neamat-e-KHuld thi bashar ke liye
