ek sitam aur lakh adaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
tirchhi nigahen tang qabaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
hijr mein apna aur hai aalam abr-e-bahaaran dida-e-pur-nam
zid ki hamein wo aap bulaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
apni ada se aap jhijakna apni hawa se aap khaTakna
chaal mein laghzish munh pe hayaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
hath mein aaDi tegh pakaDna taki lage bhi zaKHm to ochha
qasd ki phir ji bhar ke sataen uf ri jawani hae zamane
kali ghaTaen bagh mein jhule dhani dupaTTe laT jhaTkae
mujh pe ye qadghan aap na aaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
pichhle pahar uTh uTh ke namazen nak ragaDni sajdon pe sajde
jo nahin jaez us ki duaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
'shad' na wo didar-parasti aur na wo be-nashsha ki masti
tujh ko kahan se DhunDh ke laen uf ri jawani hae zamane
Ghazal
Ek sitam aur lakh adaen uf ri jawani hae zamane
Shad Azimabadi
