Hote KHuda ke us but-e-kafir ki chah ki

hote KHuda ke us but-e-kafir ki chah ki
itni to baat mujh se hui hai gunah ki

soz-e-darun kiya jo mera shama ne bayan
jal kar zaban kaT li mere gawah ki

bharta hai aaj KHub tarare samand-e-naz
qumchi hai un ke hath mein zulf-e-siyah ki

dekha huzur ko jo mukaddar to mar gae
hum miT gae jo aap ne maili nigah ki

furqat mein yaad aae jo lutf-e-shab-e-visal
ek aah bhar ke jaanib-e-gardun nigah ki

sunsan kar diya mere pahlu ko le ke dil
zalim ne luT kar meri basti tabah ki

wo mujh se kah rahe hain ishaaron mein dekhna
sab taD jaenge sar-e-mahfil jo aah ki

hum wo the dil hi dil mein kiya zabt-e-raaz-e-ishq
sadme uTha ke mar gae munh se na aah ki

afsos hai ki main to phirun dar-ba-dar KHarab
tum ko KHabar na ho mere haal-e-tabah ki

'jauhar' KHuda ke fazl se aisi ghazal kahi
shohrat mushaire mein hui wah-wah ki
