shikasta jism darida jabin ki jaanib
kabhi to dekh mere ham-nashin ki jaanib
main apna zaKHm dikhaun tujhe ki main dekhun
lahu mein Dubi hui aastin ki jaanib
in aasman-mizajon se hai bala ka gurez
palaT raha hun main apni zamin ki jaanib
kuchh apne harf ke moti kuchh apne lafz ke phul
uchhaal aaya hun us naznin ki jaanib
kisi ki chashm taaqub ki zad mein rahta hun
main dekhta hun jab us mah-jabin ki jaanib
KHud apne hone pe mujh ko yaqin hai lekin
main dekhta hun guman se yaqin ki jaanib
masaf-e-jaan mein khaDa hun mere adu se kaho
wo dekhta hai yasar-o-yamin ki jaanib
kisi ne tham li baDh kar mere faras ki rikab
kisi ne hath baDhaya tha zin ki jaanib
KHud apne fan ka ye 'shahid' kamal hai naqqad
wo dekhta hi nahin naqidin ki jaanib
Ghazal
Shikasta jism darida jabin ki jaanib
