ajab shikast ka ehsas dil pe chhaya tha
kisi ne mujh ko nishana nahin banaya tha
usi nigah ne aankhon ko kar diya patthar
usi nigah mein sab kuchh nazar bhi aaya tha
yahan to ret hai patthar hain aur kuchh bhi nahin
wo kya dikhane mujhe itni dur laya tha
ulajh gaya hun kuchh aisa ki yaad bhi to nahin
ye wahm pahle-pahal kaise dil mein aaya tha
wo main nahin tha tumhaari taraf sarakta hua
hawas ne tirgi ka faeda uThaya tha
bichhaDna itna hi aasan tha agar us se
to KHud-kushi ka ye saman kyun juTaya tha
gila to aaj bhi sachchai hai magar 'shaariq'
ye jhuT us se mein pahle hi bol aaya tha
Ghazal
Ajab shikast ka ehsas dil pe chhaya tha
