aise Dare hain kis ki nigah-e-ghazab se hum
bad-KHwab ho gae hain jo do chaar shab se hum
kab kaamyab-e-bosa hue us ke lab se hum
sharminda hi rahe dil-e-matlab-matlab se hum
bosa na le sake kaf-e-pa ka adab se hum
kaTen hain is liye kaf-e-afsos shab se hum
sauda-gar-e-safa-e-dil-e-be-ghubar hain
ajnas-e-shisha lae hain shahr-e-halab se hum
ye roz DhunDh lae hai ek KHub-ru naya
shaki hain apne hi dil-e-afat-talab se hum
kashti hamari bahr ki hai manjdhaar mein
nikle hain kab kashakash-e-lutf-o-ghazab se hum
tarz-e-KHiram-e-naz ki be-etidaliyan
dekhen hain aur kuchh nahin kahte adab se hum
burqe mein ho ki parda-e-chadar mein KHub-ru
pahchante hain waza se shoKHi se chhab se hum
shaghl-e-sharab o shisha o saqi-e-naghma-sanj
taib hue hain aalam-e-piri mein sab se hum
be-lutf zindagi ke hain din aa bhi ai ajal
tere hi intizar mein baiThe hain kab se hum
fan itna kam kya hai ki in rozon 'mushafi'
dil mein ek uns rakhte hain sher-e-arab se hum
Ghazal
Aise Dare hain kis ki nigah-e-ghazab se hum
Mushafi Ghulam Hamdani
