ahl-e-duniya waqif-e-asrar-e-pinhan ho gae

ahl-e-duniya waqif-e-asrar-e-pinhan ho gae
dastan-e-gham suna kar hum pasheman ho gae
mere aansu un ki aankhon mein numayan ho gae
ab pareshan karne wale khud pareshan ho gae


pursish-e-gham karne wale badh gaya kuchh aur gham
chand qatre aansuon ke badh ke tufan ho gae
jo khulus-e-bandagi ke muntazir the aaj tak
mere sajdon se wo naqsh-e-pa numayan ho gae


baghban se kya shikayat us ka daman pak hai
ab to khud gulchin bhi gulshan ke nigahban ho gae
ek hamari hi nazar nakaam-e-sahil kya rahi
jaane kitne hi safine nazr-e-tufan ho gae


ishq ka anjam ai dil kitna ibrat-nak hai
meri haalat dekhne wale pareshan ho gae
juzw-e-fitrat kab bana dard-e-mohabbat kya khabar
is qadar hum 'shauq' mahw-e-husn-e-jaanan ho gae
