han bikharne de tasalli se dil-e-bismil mujhe

han bikharne de tasalli se dil-e-bismil mujhe
ai dhadakte dil thahar ja mil gai manzil mujhe
abr-e-naisan chadar-e-shaffaf bar mahmil mujhe
chand kya hai bas kisi rukhsar ka ek til mujhe


zalzale har sans mein har har nafas karb-e-hayat
chain se jine na dega iztirab-e-dil mujhe
ab ye mere zehn ka badlaw hai ya bebasi
jaane kyon wo sang-dil lagta hai dariya-dil mujhe


sabz gahre rang ki chadar lapete kohsar
khizr-saman aa kabhi in wadiyon mein mil mujhe
aazmata hai magar ye khush-nasibi kam nahin
us ne samjha hai jo apne pyar ke qabil mujhe


waqt aane de pasina aaega har mauj ko
kyon samajhta hai koi katta hua sahil mujhe
sar hatheli par liye jab main sar-e-maqtal gaya
dekhta tha dam-ba-khud khanjar-ba-kaf qatil mujhe


fitna-samani ke din saghar-ba-lab shisha-ba-dast
maut ka saman na ho jae teri mahfil mujhe
aaj bhi shahid hai 'bazmi' wadi-e-jabraltar
kashtiyan apni jalain tab mila sahil mujhe
