hath rakhte hi tha haal-e-qalb-e-muztar aaina
dast-e-nazuk hai hasinon ka muqarrar aaina

ban gaya ghammaz shakl un ki dikha kar aaina
jo hamara raaz-e-dil tha ab hai un par aaina

tod kar dil tum ne khoya imtiyaz-e-husn bhi
ek tumhaare pas tha ya ab hai ghar ghar aaina

dekhna hai kis mein achchhi shakl aati hai nazar
us ne rakkha hai mere dal ke barabar aaina

aaina rakkho lo ki duna lutf aae waqt-e-ranj
is taraf tum us taraf khinche ho khanjar aaina

aks se apne kisi ke garm-joshi qahr thi
rah gaya aakhir pasine mein naha kar aaina

shauq-e-khud-bini sitam ninden jawani ki ghazab
be-khabar sote hain wo rakkha hai munh par aaina

shokhiyon se ban gaya bijli kisi ka aks bhi
ab to hathon se nikalta hai tadap kar aaina

yun kahan mumkin tha husn-e-khas ka didar-e-am
ban gai aakhir sarapa subh-e-mahshar aaina

dekh len shayad 'nazar' wo dida-e-insaf se
le chalo tute hue dil ka bana kar aaina
