kuchh soch ke parwana mahfil mein jala hoga
shayad isi marne mein jine ka maza hoga
har sai-e-sitam par aansu nikal aae hain
anjam-e-tarab-koshi kya jaaniye kya hoga
gumrah-e-mohabbat hun puchho na meri manzil
har naqsh-e-qadam mera manzil ka pata hoga
kya tera mudawa ho dard-e-shab-e-tanhai
chup rahiye to barbaadi kahiye to gila hoga
katra ke to jate ho diwane ke raste se
diwana lipaT jae qadmon se to kya hoga
maiKHane se masjid tak milte hain nuqush-e-pa
ya shaiKH gae honge ya rind gaya hoga
farzanon ka kya kahna har baat pe laDte hain
diwane se diwana shayad hi laDa hoga
rindon ko 'hafiz' itna samjha de koi ja kar
aapas mein laDoge tum waiz ka bhala hoga
Ghazal
Kuchh soch ke parwana mahfil mein jala hoga
