Ghazal 132

bas ek bar kisi ne gale lagaya tha

KHamushi achchhi nahin inkar hona chahiye

abhi kisi ke na mere kahe se guzrega

abhi aankhen khuli hain aur kya kya dekhne ko

jaisi ab hai isi haalat mein nahin rah sakta

Sher 151

ab ke is bazm meñ kuchh apnā pata bhī denā

paañv par paañv jo rakhnā to dabā bhī denā

ab ke is bazm mein kuchh apna pata bhi dena

panw par panw jo rakhna to daba bhi dena

yahāñ kisī ko bhī kuchh hasb-e-ārzū na milā

kisī ko ham na mile aur ham ko tū na milā

yahan kisi ko bhi kuchh hasb-e-arzu na mila

kisi ko hum na mile aur hum ko tu na mila

jhuuT bolā hai to qaa.em bhī raho us par 'zafar'

aadmī ko sāhab-e-kirdār honā chāhiye

jhuT bola hai to qaem bhi raho us par 'zafar'

aadmi ko sahab-e-kirdar hona chahiye

Humour/Satire 4

apna to KHair nama-e-amal le gae

bayan ho hi nahin sakti kisi se shan bakre ki

manDi maweshiyat mein sari utar gai

zaid se zaidi bana aur bakr se bakri hua
