nikhra KHizan se rang-e-bahaaran hai in dinon
viraniyon se baDh ke gulistan hai in dinon
kam-maya mor mail-e-parwaz kyun hue
barham bahut mizaj-e-sulaiman hai in dinon
phir tez ho chali hai hawa-e-fareb-e-ishq
kitna hasin ahd hai paiman hai in dinon
shaiKH aa gaya bulandi-e-mimbar se farsh par
phir sazish-e-buland ka imkan hai in dinon
khinchi ajib karb se sahil ne aah-e-sard
goya sukut bar-lab-e-tufan hai in dinon
phir baDh ke hum ne jam-e-tamanna uTha liya
phir ek nai shikast ka arman hai in dinon
wo daur-e-hadsat-e-jahan hai ki al-aman
apna to bas KHuda hi nigahban hai in dinon
Ghazal
Nikhra KHizan se rang-e-bahaaran hai in dinon
