taza hain abhi yaad mein ai saqi-e-gulfam
wo aks-e-ruKH-e-yar se lahke hue ayyam
wo phul si khulti hui didar ki saat
wo dil sa dhaDakta hua ummid ka hangam
ummid ki lau jaga gham-e-dil ka nasiba
lo shauq ki tarsi hui shab ho gai aaKHir
lo Dub gae dard ke be-KHwab sitare
ab chamkega be-sabr nigahon ka muqaddar
is baam se niklega tere husn ka KHurshid
is kunj se phuTegi kiran rang-e-hina ki
is dar se bahega teri raftar ka simab
us rah pe phailegi shafaq teri qaba ki
phir dekhe hain wo hijr ke tapte hue din bhi
jab fikr-e-dil-o-jaan mein fughan bhul gai hai
har shab wo siyah bojh ki dil baiTh gaya hai
har subh ki lau tir si sine mein lagi hai
tanhai mein kya kya na tujhe yaad kiya hai
kya kya na dil-e-zar ne DhunDi hain panahen
aankhon se lagaya hai kabhi dast-e-saba ko
Dali hain kabhi gardan-e-mahtab mein bahen

chaha hai isi rang mein laila-e-watan ko
taDpa hai isi taur se dil us ki lagan mein
DhunDi hai yunhi shauq ne aasaish-e-manzil
ruKHsar ke KHam mein kabhi kakul ki shikan mein
us jaan-e-jahan ko bhi yunhi qalb-o-nazar ne
hans hans ke sada di kabhi ro ro ke pukara
pure kiye sab harf-e-tamanna ke taqaze
har dard ko ujyala har ek gham ko sanwara
wapas nahin phera koi farman junun ka
tanha nahin lauTi kabhi aawaz jaras ki
KHairiyyat-e-jaan rahat-e-tan sehhat-e-daman
sab bhul gain maslihaten ahl-e-hawas ki
is rah mein jo sab pe guzarti hai wo guzri
tanha pas-e-zindan kabhi ruswa sar-e-bazar
garje hain bahut shaiKH sar-e-gosha-e-mimbar
kaDke hain bahut ahl-e-hakam bar-sar-e-darbar
chhoDa nahin ghairon ne koi nawak-e-dushnam
chhuTi nahin apnon se koi tarz-e-malamat
us ishq na us ishq pe nadim hai magar dil
har dagh hai is dil mein ba-juz-dagh-e-nadamat
Nazm
Do ishq
