us se baDh kar to koi be-sar-o-saman na mila
dil mila jis ko magar dard-e-ghariban na mila
ek zara zauq-e-tajassus mein baDhaya tha qadam
nikhat-e-gul ko phir aaghosh-e-gulistan na mila
baat itni si hai ai waiz-e-aflak-nashin
kya milega use yazdan jise insan na mila
un se ab tazkira-e-daulat-e-kaunain hai kyun
jin gharibon ko tera gosha-e-daman na mila
KHubi-e-daulat-o-danish pe nazar hai sab ki
koi us daur mein dil-dada-e-insan na mila
Ghazal
Us se baDh kar to koi be-sar-o-saman na mila
