KHirad ai be-KHabar kuchh bhi nahin hai
na ho sauda to sar kuchh bhi nahin hai
chamak sari darun-e-shaKH-e-gul hai
nihaal-o-shaKH par kuchh bhi nahin hai
KHala mein baal-o-par mail-ba-parwaz
zamin par ghar shajar kuchh bhi nahin hai
haqiqat bhi hai paband-e-taghayyur
jahan mein mo'tabar kuchh bhi nahin hai
sahm jata hun lutf-e-dostan se
ki dushman ho to Dar kuchh bhi nahin hai
ye sara fasla dil ka hai warna
miyan-e-dasht-o-dar kuchh bhi nahin hai
Ghazal
KHirad ai be-KHabar kuchh bhi nahin hai
