shikwe zaban pe aa saken is ka sawal hi na ho
un se jafa ka zikr kya jin ko KHayal hi na ho
dil hi to hai zaban nahin shikwa nahin karenge hum
lekin ye shart kis liye ji ko malal hi na ho
mizhgan pe wan nigah-e-lutf honTon pe yan hadis-e-shauq
apne hudud se baDhen is ki majal hi na ho
shauq ko intizar-e-lutf lutf ko intizar-e-shauq
baat bane bhi kya jahan pursish-e-haal hi na ho
Thes ghurur ko lagi qahr bani nigah-e-lutf
qahr bhi zid se to aman jis ko zawal hi na ho
lutf na tha jise nasib qahr ki tab lae kyun
ishq ki KHud-farebiyan jaise KHayal hi na ho
'hamid'-e-nau-asir se charKH-e-kuhan ne kya kaha
hai wo hayat raegan jo paemal hi na ho
Ghazal
Shikwe zaban pe aa saken is ka sawal hi na ho
Syed Hamid
