khulne hi lage un par asrar-e-shabab aaKHir
aane hi laga hum se ab un ko hijab aaKHir
tamil-e-kitab awwal tawil-e-kitab aaKHir
tadbir o amal awwal taqrir o KHitab aaKHir
is KHak ke putle ki kya KHub kahani hai
masjud-e-malak awwal ruswa o KHarab aaKHir
go KHud wo nahin karte baKHshish mein hisab awwal
dena hai magar hum ko ek roz hisab aaKHir
didar se pahle hi kya haal hua dil ka
kya hoga jo ulTenge wo ruKH se naqab aaKHir
mahrum ne rah jaana kotahi-e-himmat se
hone ko hai ai 'wasif' ye bazm-e-sharab aaKHir
Ghazal
Khulne hi lage un par asrar-e-shabab aaKHir
