barahnagi ka mudawa koi libas na tha
KHud apne zahr ka tiryaq mere pas na tha
sulag raha hun KHud apni hi aag mein kab se
ye mashghala to mere dard ki asas na tha
teri nawazish-e-paiham ke naqsh dil mein rahe
main be-KHabar sahi par aisa na-sipas na tha
har ek sher tha mera mere KHayal ka aks
koi kitab na thi koi iqtibas na tha
bikhar gae the so KHud ko sameT bhi lete
ki is yaqin mein shamil mera qayas na tha
Ghazal
Barahnagi ka mudawa koi libas na tha
