hai niyaz-e-‘ishq se be-KHabar jo na nikle parda-e-naz se

hai niyaz-e-‘ishq se be-khabar jo na nikle parda-e-naz se
dil-e-'ghaznawi' mein tadap thi kya koi puchhe zulf-e-'ayaz' se
mere haal-e-dil ki riwayaten ye chhupi chhupi si hikayaten
ye kahan kahan na padhi gain tere ru-e-mushaf-e-naz se


mere dil ko aa mere mit le mere jism-o-jaan ko jit le
kahin haar jae na zindagi gham-e-hijr-ha-e-daraaz se
ye shikasta tar ye kushta tan ye ghina mein duba hua badan
suno dhime dhime hai naghma-zan ye khamoshi-e-lab-e-saz se


ye hai kor-chashmon ki anjuman hai bala se meri ye zau-fagan
yahan kis nazar mein hai bankpan jo milae dida-e-baz se
mere dil ke tar ko chhed kar jo uthe ye nala-e-pur-asar
to jala na de tere baam-o-dar ye sharar-e-sho'la-e-saz se


ye kamal-e-shana nahin 'sahar' hai jamal-e-aina-e-nazar
ye pareshan kaise sanwar gai zara puchho zulf-e-daraaz se
