raaz-e-dil kyun na kahun samne diwanon ke
ye to wo log hain apnon ke na beganon ke
wo bhi kya daur the saqi tere mastanon ke
raste rah taka karte the mai-KHanon ke
baadalon par ye ishaare tere diwanon ke
TukDe pahunche hain kahan uD ke garebanon ke
raste band kiye dete ho diwanon ke
Dher lag jaenge basti mein garebanon ke
na azan deta na hushiyar barahman hota
dar to us shaiKH ne khulwae hain but-KHanon ke
aap din-raat sanwara karen gesu to kya
kahin haalat badalte hain pareshanon ke
mana kar girya-e-shabnam pe na ye phul hansen
lale paD jaenge ai baad-e-saba jaanon ke
kya zamana tha udhar sham idhar hath mein jam
subh tak daur chala karte the paimanon ke
wo bhi kya din the udhar sham idhar hath mein jam
ab to raste bhi rahe yaad na mai-KHanon ke
aaj tak to meri kashti ne na pai manzil
qafile sainkaDon gum ho gae tufanon ke
KHak-e-sahra pe lakiren hain unhen phir dekho
kahin ye KHat na hon likkhe hue diwanon ke
dekhiye charKH pe tare bhi hain kya be-tartib
jaise bikhre hue TukDe mere paimanon ke
hath KHali hain magar mulk-e-adam ka hai safar
hausle dekhiye un be-sar-o-samanon ke
sar jhukae hue baiThe hain jo kabe mein 'qamar'
aise hote hain nikale hue but-KHanon ke
Ghazal
Raaz-e-dil kyun na kahun samne diwanon ke
