masjid ko diya chhoD riya ki KHatir

ai abr kahan tak tere raste dekhen

kya zikr-e-wafa jafa kisi se na bani

gahe to karam hum pe bhi farmaen aap

bano ne kaha qatra nahin shir ka hai

wo waqt-e-shabab wo zamana na raha

is bazm se maidan mein jaana hoga

marmar ke pae ranj-o-bala jite hain

ai chashm-e-ghamin tere ewaz roe kaun

jab bap mua to phir hai beTa kya shai

is waqt zamane mein baham aise hain

jo ja ke na aae phir jawani hai ye shai

hum kaun hain ehtimam karne wale

kya jaaniye ulfat ka hai kis se aaghaz

har zaKHm-e-jigar khaya hai dil par tan kar

KHurshid pe jis waqt zawal aata hai

tha aadam-e-KHaki ghazab be-zinhaar

jahil ki hai miras qalaq taKHt-o-taj

shah kahte the afsos na kahna mane

ye wahm-e-dui dil se juda karna tha

lazim hai ki fikr-e-ruKH-e-dilbar chhoDun

kahta hun KHuda-lagti aqide ke KHilaf

darwaze pe tere hi marunga ya-rab

fani ke hai nazdik baqa ko bhi fana

ye shahr buland aalam-e-baala se tha

KHud rafta ho badmast ho kaisa hai mizaj

mehrab-o-musalla aur zahid bhi wahi

sad-haif ki mai-nosh hue hum kaise

afsos teri waza pe aata hai qalaq

duniya ka tamam karKHana hai abas

hai dosti-e-al-e-aba rone se

kis tarah se girya ko na ho tughyani

kya lene su-e-jah-o-hasham jaenge

ya-rab tujhe fikr-e-pa-e-bandi kya hai

har rose KHushi hai shab-e-gham se pamal

dil se mujhe aane ki hai aan ki aahaT

jaan jae par ummid na jaegi kabhi

kis waste di thin hamein ya-rab aankhen

dil josh-e-maasi se na kyun KHun ho jae

dil der-guzari se hai aawand-e-namak

hai mehr-e-karam gunah-gari meri

yan hum ko diya kya jo wahan par ho nigah

daman se gul-e-taza mahakte nikle

masjid mein na ja wan nahin hone ka nibah

aaluda KHayalat mein tere hun mudam

gardan ko jhuka deta hai adna ehsan

duniya mein qalaq kya hai sarasar hai KHak

ai parda-nashin sahl hua ye ishkal

yan nafs ki shoKHi se hai majnun laila

kis tarah kahun aa bhi kahin uzr na kar
