ab unhen mujhse kuchh hijab nahin

shab-charagh kar mujhko ai KHuda andhere mein

tamam umr ki aawargi pe bhaari hai

har sans mein hai sarir-e-KHama

mere pyar ka qissa to har basti mein mashhur hai chand

Dhalta suraj aankh ka reza ho jata hai

apni majburi ko hum diwar-o-dar kahne lage

KHwab dekhun ki ratjage dekhun

kijiye aur sawalat na zati mujhse

kaun sa rang iKHtiyar karen?

sang-e-chehra-numa to main bhi hun

yahi suluk munasib hai KHush-gumanon se

maine kis shauq se ek umr ghazal-KHwani ki

aadha jiwan bita aahen bharne mein

har aan ek naya imtihan sar par hai
