wo barq-e-naz gurezan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
magar sharik-e-rag-e-jaan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
hazar dil hai tera mashriq-e-mah-o-KHurshid
ghubar-e-manzil-e-jaanan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
bahaar-e-gul-kada-e-naz dil-kusha hai magar
nasim-e-shauq KHiraman nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
hai KHalwat-e-dil-e-viran hi manzil-e-mahbub
ye KHalwat-e-dil-e-viran nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
har ek sans ho aatish-kada to kya hasil
gudaz shola-e-pinhan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
baghair ishq hai rudad-e-zindagi tarik
ye lafz zinat-e-unwan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
bahut buland hai dil ka maqam-e-KHuddari
magar shikast ka imkan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
sukun-e-shauq ho ya iztirab-e-shauq 'rawish'
agar ba-manzila-e-jaan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
Ghazal
Wo barq-e-naz gurezan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin
