surKH-ru hone ke qabil kya hina thi main na tha
aap ke qadmon ke niche us ko ja thi main na tha
dekhte kya ho udhar gar zulf barham ho gai
ye sarasar harkat-e-baad-e-saba thi main na tha
jal gae aghyar sab mahfil mein aane se mere
ai pari ye garmi-e-ah-e-rasa thi main na tha
kyun na us hasrat se mera shisha-e-dil chur ho
bagh tha saqi tha sabza tha hawa thi main na tha
Ghazal
SurKH-ru hone ke qabil kya hina thi main na tha
