Wahshat usi se phir bhi wahi yar dekhna

wahshat usi se phir bhi wahi yar dekhna
pagal ko jaise chand ka didar dekhna

is hijrati ko kaam hua hai ki raat din
bas wo charagh aur wo diwar dekhna

panw mein ghumti hai zamin aasman talak
is tifl-e-shir-KHwar ki raftar dekhna

ya-rab koi sitara-e-ummid phir tulu
kya ho gae zamin ke aasar dekhna

lagta hai jaise koi wali hai zuhur mein
ab sham ko kahin koi mai-KHwar dekhna

is wahshati ka haal ajab hai ki us taraf
jaana bhi aur jaanib-e-pindar dekhna

dekha tha KHwab shaer-e-momin ne is liye
tabir mein mila hamein talwar dekhna

jo dil ko hai KHabar kahin milti nahin KHabar
har subh ek azab hai aKHbar dekhna

main ne suna hai qurb-e-qayamat ka hai nishan
be-qamati pe jubba-o-dastar dekhna

sadiyan guzar rahi hain magar raushni wahi
ye sar hai ya charagh sar-e-dar dekhna

is qafile ne dekh liya karbala ka din
ab rah gaya hai sham ka bazar dekhna

do chaar ke siwa yahan likhta ghazal hai kaun
ye kaun hain ye kis ke taraf-dar dekhna
