sahab-e-fasl-e-gul hai barg-e-awara nahin hai wo
chalo mana kisi ki aankh ka tara nahin hai wo

charagh-e-rahguzar hai rasti hai us ki fitrat mein
khalaon mein bhatakne wala sayyara nahin hai wo

dukanen mat sajao qimti jazbon ko mat becho
ghazal ka phul hai kaghaz ka pushtara nahin hai wo

hum apni pyas le kar gham ke sahra mein bhatakte hain
hamein kya hai agar dhaara hai ya dhaara nahin hai wo

ye bechaini zara si mitha mitha dard thoda sa
sharar-e-rang ki tamsil hai para nahin hai wo

uga sakta hun lafzon ki zamin se lala-e-mani
ki mere zehn mein jo kuchh hai angara nahin hai wo

use mein jaanta hun sab usi par jaan dete hain
'ayaz-e-azmi’ aakhir tumhein pyara nahin hai wo
