shane ki har zaban se sune koi laf-e-zulf
chire hai sina raat ko ye mu-shigaf-e-zulf
jis tarah se ki kabe pe hai poshish-e-siyah
is tarah is sanam ke hai ruKH par ghilaf-e-zulf
barham hai is qadar jo mere dil se zulf-e-yar
shamat-zada ne kya kiya aisa KHilaf-e-zulf
matlab na kufr o din se na dair o haram se kaam
karta hai dil tawaf-e-izar o tawaf-e-zulf
naf-e-ghazal-e-chin hai ki hai nafa-e-tatar
kyunkar kahun ki hai girah-e-zulf naf-e-zulf
aapas mein aaj dast-o-gareban hai roz o shab
ai mehr-wash zari ka nahin mu-e-baf-e-zulf
kahta hai koi jim koi lam zulf ko
kahta hun main 'zafar' ki musattah hai kaf-e-zulf
Ghazal
Shane ki har zaban se sune koi laf-e-zulf
Bahadur Shah Zafar
