mansur-war mahw-e-tamasha nahin hun main
sab kuchh sahi kharab-e-tamanna nahin hun main

pinhan tajalliyan hain isi musht-e-khak mein
har-chand kuchh nahin hun magar kya nahin hun main

socho to sare khel tamashe mujhi se hain
samjho to koi khel-tamasha nahin hun main

hai dard-e-ishq-e-yar mujhe jaan se aziz
saudai-e-ilaj-e-masiha nahin hun main

karta hun aazmaish-e-fariyaad ai falak
ya tu nahin hai aaj ki shab ya nahin hun main

hasil teri nigah se hai kaif-e-be-khudi
harf-e-talash saghar-o-mina nahin hun main

zauq-e-sukhan hai is liye likkhi gai ghazal
'ejaz' warna 'ghaalib'-o-'sauda' nahin hun main
