sitaron ke aage jo aabaadiyan hain
teri zulf ki gum-shuda wadiyan hain
zamana bhi kya raunaqon ki jagah hai
kahin rona-dhona kahin shadiyan hain
teri kakulen hi nahin sabz pariyan
meri aarzuen bhi shahzadiyan hain
baDi shai hai wabastagi do dilon ki
ye pabandiyan hi to aazadiyan hain
jahan qadr hai kuchh na kuchh aadmi ki
wo kya qabil-e-qadr aabaadiyan hain
yakayak na dil phenkna aankh walo
ye sab aankh ki fitna-ijadiyan hain
gharibon se kya kaam aasaishon ka
wo unche gharanon ki shahzadiyan hain
'adam' suraton ki chamak par na jaana
ye sab aankh ki fitna-ijadiyan hain
jahan bhi 'adam' koi dilbar makin hai
wahan kitni gunjaan aabaadiyan hain
Ghazal
Sitaron ke aage jo aabaadiyan hain
