hum kisi saya-e-diwar mein aa baiThe hain
ya kahin sham ke aasar mein aa baiThe hain
hum ki juz apne siwa auron se waqif hi nahin
KHud se uktae to do-chaar mein aa baiThe hain
hum ko bhati na thi KHushbu-e-chaman to uTh kar
ghar ke gul-dan ki mahkar mein aa baiThe hain
ye ajab log hain jine ki tamanna le kar
subh hote hi saf-e-dar mein aa baiThe hain
chhoD kar apne Thikanon ko chaman mein ye parind
jaane kyun wadi-e-pur-KHar mein aa baiThe hain
tu na ho to koi tujh sa hi nazar aae 'shahab'
hum jahan hasrat-e-didar mein aa baiThe hain
Ghazal
Hum kisi saya-e-diwar mein aa baiThe hain
