nala-e-mauzu.n se misra aah ka chaspa.n hua

zor ye pur-dard apna matla-e-diwan hua

jis ne dekha aa ke ye aaina-khana dahr ka

fil-haqiqat bas wo apna aap hi haira.n hua

sab pe zahir ho gai betabi-e-dil shakl-e-barq

wo bhabhuka apni nazro.n se jo Tuk pinha.n hua

us ke jaane se ye dil mei.n aae hai rah rah ke hae

sab jaha.n basta hai ek apna hi ghar vira.n hua

kash dil se chashm tak aane na pata tifl-e-ashk

rafta rafta ab to ye laDka koi tufa.n hua

gar hue wa us ke lab to dekhiye kya gul khile

ho khafa jab be-tarah wo raunaq-e-busta.n hua

aae jo marqad pe mere so mukaddar ho gae

khaak ho kar bhi ghubar-e-khatir-e-yara.n hua

roz-o-shab rahne lage is ghar mei.n ye kafir sanam

kaba-e-dil saf apna ab to kufrista.n hua

josh-e-wahshat dekhiyo koi ki har ek khaar ke

dhajjiya.n ho kar gale ka haar ye dama.n hua

ashk-e-rangi.n ne jo apne kar diya ya.n farsh-e-gul

rashk-e-sad-gulshan hamei.n ye gosha-e-zinda.n hua

bandh gaya tera tasawwur jis ki aankho.n ke huzur

us ko bas aalam visal-o-hijr ka yaksa.n hua

yak-ba-yak tu ne ye kaisa rang badla ai falak

teri gardish se kahi.n kya sakht ji halka.n hua

kal talak jo ghar ghar apna tha so us ke dar pe aaj

nila pila dekh kar kya kya hamei.n darba.n hua

garche har qalib mei.n 'jurat' surate.n Dhalti rahi.n

par bana jo dard ka putla wo hi insa.n hua
