dil mein ek shor macha ho jaise
dard phir chikh raha ho jaise

teri furqat mein ye mahsus kiya
jism se ruh juda ho jaise

in hawaon mein ghutan hai aisi
phul khushbu se khafa ho jaise

yun mujhe yaad kiya hai us ne
sang par phul khila ho jaise

so gaya shahr magar khwab mera
nind ko dhund raha ho jaise

dard yun ruh ki taskin hua
zakhm khane mein maza ho jaise

us ki tanqid ke lahje ki mithas
zahr mein shahd ghula ho jaise

jam pita hai ghazal ke 'shadab'
shaeri koi nasha ho jaise
