mujh ko ta-umr tadapne ki saza hi dena
tujh ko manzur agar ho to bhula hi dena

ai gham-e-hijr wo tohmat jo lagae mujh par
meri be-laus mohabbat ki gawahi dena

ye alag baat ki ho jaun mohabbat mein tabah
tu na mujh ko kabhi ehsas-e-tabahi dena

wo jo majbur karen sharh-e-gham-e-furqat ko
ashk-amez nigahon se suna hi dena

un ke daman ko mah-o-mehr se karna mamur
mere hisse mein jahan bhar ki syahi dena

wo jawan ke kahin fitna-e-dauran na bane
husn ko fitrat-e-mashuq-nigahi dena

aaj bhi yaad hai ai dost inayat teri
wo tera itna hansana ki rula hi dena

mere har sher mein rudad-e-sitam hai un ki
ai 'zafar' meri ghazal un ko suna hi dena
