Aage wo ja bhi chuke lutf-e-nazara bhi gaya

aage wo ja bhi chuke lutf-e-nazara bhi gaya
chashm-e-ghaflat na khuli subh ka tara bhi gaya

sard-mehri se teri garmi-e-ulfat na rahi
dil mein uThta tha jo har-dam wo sharara bhi gaya

dil ke aaine mein jab aap ki surat dekhi
jis ko dhoka main samajhta tha wo dhoka bhi gaya

ishq ko tab-e-tajalli nahin kya dekhega
husn ye jaan ke pardon ko uThata bhi gaya

kis ne pai hai gham-e-yar-e-mohabbat se najat
ishq ka bojh kahin sar se utara bhi gaya

tere qadmon pe jo lazzat hai wo hasil na hui
yun to sajde mein sar-e-ijz jhukaya bhi gaya

dil ki aashufta-mizaji mein na kuchh farq aaya
barha zulf-e-pareshan ko sanwara bhi gaya

mangne se kahin ye chiz mila karti hai
dil churane hi ke qabil tha churaya bhi gaya

be-KHudi tujh pe tasadduq hon mere hosh-o-hawas
samne hote hue un ko pukara bhi gaya

ek hi chiz hai parde mein ki bairun-e-hijab
mujh ko zahir bhi kiya KHud ko chhupaya bhi gaya

phir bhi aankhen rahin mahrum-e-tamasha-e-jamal
un ki taswir ko shishe mein utara bhi gaya

chhoD kar mujh ko bhanwar mein na KHabar li meri
ek sahaara tha tumhaara wo sahaara bhi gaya

pa-e-mahbub pe sar rakh ke hue hum 'wasil'
zindagi pai nai maut ka dhaDka bhi gaya

dil ke aaine mein nadida tajalli dekhi
KHud-numai ka bhala ho ki wo parda bhi gaya
