yun dekhne mein to upar se saKHt hun shayad
magar darun-e-badan laKHt laKHt hun shayad
mere nasib mein likkhi hai shab ki tariki
main Dubte hue suraj ka baKHt hun shayad
qarib o dur nahin hai koi bhi apna sa
ujaD bagh ka tanha daraKHt hun shayad
mujhe kisi ne suna hi nahin tawajjoh se
main bad-zaban sada-e-karaKHt hun shayad
nahif kandhon pe bar-e-gham-e-do-alam hai
sarapa rahu o ketu ka taKHt hun shayad
meri talash mein hai koi aisa lagta hai
kisi ka gum-shuda 'shadab' raKHt hun shayad
Ghazal
Yun dekhne mein to upar se saKHt hun shayad
