Munfarid to hai tera koi muqabil na hua

munfarid to hai tera koi muqabil na hua
koi maKHluq bhi kaunain mein kaamil na hua

ek tamasha wo bhi didar ke qabil na hua
raqs-e-bismil jo sar-e-kucha-e-qatil na hua

dil jo qurbani-e-parwana ka hamil na hua
darKHur-e-anjuman-e-shama-shamail na hua

kaun hai teri inayat ka jo qail na hua
kis ke dukh-sukh mein to waqt aane pe shamil na hua

jaan-ba-haq ho gaya taslim alag baat hai ye
rah-raw-e-ishq yun aasuda-e-manzil na hua

aankh kya aankh nahin tab-e-nazara jis ko
dil wo kya dard-e-mohabbat ka jo hamil na hua

roz-e-awwal se hain sargarm-e-talash-e-mahbub
hum sa koi magar aawara-e-manzil na hua

KHud-kushi shiddat-e-iza-e-wafa mein tauba
buzdili kahiye ise ye hal-e-mushkil na hua

aisa lagta hai asiran-e-qafas chhuT gae
aaj har din ki tarah shor-e-salasil na hua

juz dil-e-ahl-e-suKHan lahn mein Dhal kar ilham
dahr mein har kas-o-na-kas pe to nazil na hua

karwaTen lin to bahut husn ki ranai ne
ishq ka rang pa 'mahir' kabhi zail na hua
