ishq ki koi agar sikh le gar mujh se tamiz
din-duniya mein hua apne parayon ko aziz
ya ho shagird mera ya mujhe talmiz kare
warna is kucha-e-ushshaq se kar jawe gurez
maktab-e-ishq se na-KHwanda uTha jo mahrum
dono aalam mein wo kuchh chiz nahin hai nachiz
mard kyunkar kahun be-ishq jo howe koi
firqa ushshaq mein us ke tain kahte hain kaniz
main ne ustad-e-azal se yahi sikha tha sabaq
'afridi' na kabhi yar ki chhoDun dahliz
Ghazal
Ishq ki koi agar sikh le gar mujhse tamiz
