un ke jalwon ki tasawwur mein farawani hai aaj

un ke jalwon ki tasawwur mein farawani hai aaj
jis jagah main hun wahan har chiz nurani hai aaj
un ka jalwa kar-farma hai kisi ke husn mein
ishq phir halqa-ba-gosh-e-husn-e-insani hai aaj


izn-e-mai-noshi hai phir saqi ki chashm-e-mast se
hum ne tauba tod kar pine ki phir thani hai aaj
ab to pine se siwa hain laghzishon mein lazzaten
kyon ki khud saqi ki maston par nigahbani hai aaj


qissa-e-mazi hai goya lan-tarani ki sada
har taraf pesh-e-nazar ek nur-e-yazdani hai aaj
yun ba-qadr-e-kasr-e-isyan hai rahmat ka nuzul
main ne tauba ki thi tauba par pashemani hai aaj


aa rahe hain samne waiz ke poshida gunah
parda-e-rahmat mein meri chaak-damani hai aaj
kis qadar mafluj the ab tak hawadis se hawas
ba'd muddat hum ne apni shakl pahchani hai aaj


'ashiq' o 'mahtab' o ‘muztar' 'shad' 'azurda' 'khaliq'
'kaif' o 'sadiq' hain 'shifa' mahw-e-ghazal-khwani hai aaj
