un se ummid-e-ru-numai hai
kya nigahon ki maut aai hai
husn masruf-e-KHud-numai hai
ishq ka daur ibtidai hai
dil ne gham se shikast khai hai
umr-e-rafta teri duhai hai
dil ki barbaadiyon pe nazan hun
fath pa kar shikast khai hai
mere mabad nahin hain dair-o-haram
ehtiyatan jabin jhukai hai
wo hawa de rahe hain daman ki
hae kis waqt nind aai hai
khul gaya un ki aarzu mein ye raaz
zist apni nahin parai hai
shama parwana hon ki ghuncha-o-gul
zindagi kis ko ras aai hai
gul fasurda chaman udas 'shakil'
yun bhi aksar bahaar aai hai
Ghazal
Un se ummid-e-ru-numai hai
Shakeel Badayuni
