manind-e-shama-majlis shab ashk-bar paya
al-qissa 'mir' ko hum be-iKHtiyar paya
ahwal KHush unhon ka ham-bazm hain jo tere
afsos hai ki hum ne wan ka na bar paya
jite jo zof ho kar zaKHm-e-rasa se us ke
sine ko chaak dekha dil ko figar paya
shahr-e-dil ek muddat ujDa basa ghamon mein
aaKHir ujaD dena us ka qarar paya
itna na tujh se milte ne dil ko kho ke rote
jaisa kiya tha hum ne waisa hi yar paya
kya e'tibar yan ka phir us ko KHwar dekha
jis ne jahan mein aa kar kuchh e'tibar paya
aahon ke shole jis ja uThte the 'mir' se shab
wan ja ke subh dekha musht-e-ghubar paya
Ghazal
Manind-e-shama-majlis shab ashk-bar paya
