Wajh-e-taskin-e-junun wasl-e-nigaran bhi nahin

wajh-e-taskin-e-junun wasl-e-nigaran bhi nahin
ishq aasan hai magar is qadar aasan bhi nahin

har tajalli ke liye zarf-e-nazar hai darkar
jalwa arzan hai magar is qadar arzan bhi nahin

jaane kya soch ke har rah mein ruk jata hun
us se milne ka kisi moD pe imkan bhi nahin

har nafas khinch raha hai koi rag rag se lahu
aur nashtar koi paiwast-e-rag-e-jaan bhi nahin

qafile hain ki guzarte hi chale jate hain
manzilen hain ki kisi samt numayan bhi nahin

gul ka kya zikr ki ai dost mere daman par
ek muddat se kisi KHar ka ehsan bhi nahin

kaun samjhega mere zarf-e-junun ki wusat
main pareshan hun mera haal pareshan bhi nahin

tu ye ilzam mere zarf-e-junun par na tarash
ishq kafir bhi nahin ishq musalman bhi nahin

'shor' uTha dun main gul-o-lala ke parde lekin
yan koi mahram-e-asrar-e-gulistan bhi nahin
