zinda rahne ki talab is liye pyari na rahi
koi waqat dil-e-qatil mein hamari na rahi
mai-kashi chhoD di is waste hum ne saqi
pahle jaisi teri aankhon mein KHumari na rahi
nind ka zahar nigahon mein samaya jab se
ratjagon se meri ba-zabta yari na rahi
aaKHirash aa hi gaya kushta-e-hasrat ko qarar
umr-bhar lazzat-e-awargi tari na rahi
sikhta kis tarah aain-e-junun ke aadab
mujh pe mail ba-karam did tumhaari na rahi
shiddat-e-zabt se pathra gain aankhen bhi 'nadim'
gham raha sath mein par girya-o-zari na rahi
Ghazal
Zinda rahne ki talab is liye pyari na rahi
