sar-e-taslim KHam karna paDa taqsir se pahle
mohabbat ki saza mujh ko mili tazir se pahle
bura hoga hamari rah mein aaya agar koi
ki hum shamshir ban jaenge KHud shamshir se pahle
mohabbat ki nazar ek ek nafas par kaam karti hai
tujhe hum dekh lete hain teri taswir se pahle
mohabbat ka zamana bhi ajab dilkash zamana tha
asiri meri sabit ho gai zanjir se pahle
hamare nama-e-pur-shauq likhne par ye pabandi
qalam ki jaengi kya ungliyan tahrir se pahle
mohabbat ki amanat yunhi insan ne nahin pai
kiya hai ghaur KHud qudrat ne bhi taqdir se pahle
koi aise mein bedari ka de paigham ai 'shair'
zamana hosh mein aata nahin taqrir se pahle
Ghazal
Sar-e-taslim KHam karna paDa taqsir se pahle
