Baat ka apni na jab paya jawab

baat ka apni na jab paya jawab
hum ye samjhe wo dahan hai la-jawab

baaten sunwain lab-e-KHamosh ne
warna hum dete use kya kya jawab

be-nishan hai wo kamar shakl-e-dahan
kaun si shai hai nahin jis ka jawab

sada kaghaz bheja name ke ewaz
wan se aaya bhi to saf aaya jawab

puchhta gar us kamar ka main nishan
ghaib se milta mujhe is ka jawab

tum jo kuchh kahte zaban-e-tegh se
main dahan-e-zaKHm se deta jawab

aaj mujh se baat agar karte nahin
denge ye but kal KHuda ko kya jawab

be-dahan wo hai to main hun be-zaban
yar ki surat hun main bhi la-jawab

kah ke ek misra mah-e-nau rah gaya
ho saka kab bait-e-abru ka jawab

baat sidhi ki jo tha mazkur-e-qad
zikr-e-abru mein diya TeDha jawab

kijiye kya baat us kaj-taba se
dega charKH-e-wazhgun ulTa jawab

baaten karta hai jo parda chhoD kar
mujh ko deta hai wo dar-parda jawab

aa gaya ai wae paigham-e-ajal
par na qasid le ke kuchh aaya jawab

sun ke baiten mere hasid chup rahe
ai 'wazir' apna suKHan hai la-jawab
