zaban rakh ghuncha san apne dahan mein
bandhi muTThi chala ja is chaman mein
na khol ai yar mera gor mein munh
ki hasrat hai meri jaga kafan mein
rakha kar hath dil par aah karte
nahin rahta charagh aisi pawan mein
jale dil ki musibat apne sun kar
lagi hai aag sare tan badan mein
na tujh bin hosh mein hum aae saqi
musafir hi rahe aksar watan mein
KHirad-mandi hui zanjir warna
guzarti KHub thi diwana-pan mein
kahan ke sham-o-parwane gae mar
bahut aatash-bajaan the is chaman mein
kahan aajiz-suKHan qadir-suKHan hun
hamein hai shubh yaron ke suKHan mein
gudaz ishq mein ba bhi gaya 'mir'
yahi dhoka sa hai ab pairahan mein
Ghazal
Zaban rakh ghuncha san apne dahan mein
