rawish-e-sada-bayani meri
hai ye tegh-e-safhani meri
na-shanasa ko na aae bawar
dastan us ki zabani meri
meri hasti hai mumayyaz ba-adam
be-nishani hai nishani meri
raKHna-gar hai meri aazadi mein
hawas-e-baal fishani meri
sabaq-e-jahl ki takrar pe ab
munhasir hai hama-dani meri
dosti waza-e-tan-asani ki
ban gai dushman-e-jaani meri
KHatma hai meri tamhid mein darj
hai dil-awez kahani meri
ziraki dam-e-fareb-e-dil hai
hai tahayyur nigarani meri
dil ho saqi lab-e-dariya saghar
sahl hai pyas bujhani meri
subh-e-tifli hai buDhapa mera
sham-e-piri thi jawani meri
ek chakkar hai ba-shakl-e-gardab
band-barpa hai rawani meri
wajh baqi mere mani ko samajh
surat albatta hai fani meri
bazm-e-kasrat ka tamashai hun
wahdat-e-sarf hai bani meri
Ghazal
Rawish-e-sada-bayani meri
