Hai ghazal mir ye shifai ki

hai ghazal 'mir' ye 'shifai' ki
hum ne bhi taba-azmai ki

us ke ifa-e-ahd tak na jiye
umr ne hum se bewafai ki

wasl ke din ki aarzu hi rahi
shab na aaKHir hui judai ki

isi taqrib us gali mein rahe
minnaten hain shikasta-pai ki

dil mein us shoKH ke na ki tasir
aah ne aah na-rasai ki

kasa-e-chashm le ke jun nargis
hum ne didar ki gadai ki

zor o zar kuchh na tha to bar-e-'mir'
kis bharose par aashnai ki
