dil ki jo aag thi kam us ko bhi hone na diya
hum to rote the magar aap ne rone na diya

shama kyun parda-e-fanus mein chhup jati hai
us ne parwane ko qurban bhi hone na diya

yaad-dilbar mein kabhi ai dil-e-muztar tu ne
hum ko chup-chap kahin baith ke rone na diya

aashiyan ka to koi zikr hai kya ai sayyaad
jama tinkon ko kabhi barq ne hone na diya

aastin aaankhon par us shokh ne rakh di 'bazal'
ro raha tha mujhe kis waste rone na diya
