bikhere zulf ruKH par kaun ye baala-e-baam aaya
KHayalon ki faza mahki bahaaron ka payam aaya
mizaj-e-yar mein jab bhi KHayal-e-intiqam aaya
sar-e-fihrist apna hi gunahgaron mein nam aaya
ajab hangama dekha hum ne saqi teri mahfil mein
koi tishna-dahan uTTha koi chhalka ke jam aaya
giran-koshi mein afraazi tan-asani mein pamali
mashaqqat suraKH-ru uTThi tasahul zer-e-dam aaya
zuhur-e-sair-chashmi hi dalil-e-kaamrani hai
mera pindar-e-na-asudgi hi mere kaam aaya
ye misra de diya iqbaal ka kis shoKH-fitrat ne
samand fikr ke aage 'ziya' mushkil maqam aaya
Ghazal
Bikhere zulf ruKH par kaun ye baala-e-baam aaya
Bakhtiyar Ziya
