ho chuki ab shairi lafzon ka daftar bandh lo
tang ho jae zamin to apna bistar bandh lo
dosh par iman ki gaThri ho sar ho ya na ho
peT KHali hain to kya peTon pe patthar bandh lo
aafiyat chaho to jhuk jao sar-e-pa-posh-e-waqt
phir ye dastar-e-fazilat apne sar par bandh lo
qazi-ul-hajat se ek ahd bandha tha to kya
ab faqih-e-shahr se ahd-e-mukarrar bandh lo
aashiyanon mein chhupe baiThe hain sab shahin-o-zagh
tum bhi 'shair' tair-e-taKHil ke par bandh lo
Ghazal
Ho chuki ab shairi lafzon ka daftar bandh lo
