tir-e-qatil ka ye ehsan rah gaya
ja-e-dil sina mein paikan rah gaya

ki zara dast-e-junun ne kotahi
chaak aa kar ta-ba-daman rah gaya

do qadam chal kar tere wahshi ke sath
jada-e-rah-e-bayaban rah gaya

qatl ho kar bhi subukdoshi kahan
tegh ka gardan pe ehsan rah gaya

hum to pahunche bazm-e-jaanan tak magar
shikwa-e-bedad-e-darban rah gaya

kya qayamat hai ki ku-e-yar se
hum to nikle aur arman rah gaya

dusron par kya khule raaz-e-dahan
jabki khud sane se pinhan rah gaya

jazba-e-dil ka zara dekho asar
tir nikla bhi to paikan rah gaya

jama-e-hasti bhi ab tan par nahin
dekh wahshi tera uryan rah gaya

zoaf marne bhi nahin deta mujhe
main ajal se bhi to pinhan rah gaya

ai junun tujh se samajh lunga agar
ek bhi tar-e-gareban rah gaya

husn chamka yar ka ab aaftab
ek charagh-e-zer-e-daman rah gaya

log pahunche manzil-e-maqsud tak
main jaras ki tarah nalan rah gaya

yaad rakhna dosto is bazm mein
aa ke 'shibli' bhi ghazal-khwan rah gaya
