jamal-e-yar ke dam se ye moajiza hua tha
har ek samt thi raushan diya bujha hua tha

wo yani jismon mein ruhon ke muntaqil ki ghadi
hamare waste hairat ka dar khula hua tha

kahan the ahl-e-khirad us ghadi bataen mujhe
jab aasman zamin ke liye jhuka hua tha

barahna khwahishen jismon pe odh kar hum log
samajhte the ki muqaddar mein ye likha hua tha

zaruraton ne muqayyad hi kar liya warna
huzur-e-ishq mein sar main ne kham kiya hua tha

mera mizaj to sailab ki tarah tha magar
ye aur baat tere samne ruka hua tha

tujhe khabar nahin tere libas mein 'iqrar'
ghurur-e-zat ka paiwand bhi laga hua tha
