Mujhko koi bhi sila milne mein dushwari na thi

mujh ko koi bhi sila milne mein dushwari na thi
sab hunar aate the lekin aql se yari na thi

jin dinon iKHlas mein thoDi si ayyari na thi
husn ke darbar mein sabit wafadari na thi

sar-kashi ke ahd-namon ki hifazat ke liye
mere qalb-o-jaan se behtar koi almari na thi

jin usulon ke liye jina bahut mushkil hua
un ki KHatir jaan de dene mein dushwari na thi

husn hi ka wo ilaqa tha jahan sab kuchh mila
ishq ki apni alag koi zamin-dari na thi

sab pareshan hain ki aaKHir kis waba mein wo mere
jin ko ghurbat ke alawa koi bimari na thi

kis tarah baad-e-fana se main bacha leta use
us ghazal paikar mein koi fan ki chingari na thi

rose ek muzi ko neze par uThata tha 'naim'
inqilabi quwwaton ki jab samajhdari na thi
