un ko dekha to tabiat mein rawani aai
dil ke ujde hue gulshan pe jawani aai

pyas kya us ki bujhaenge koi aariz-o-lab
lab-e-dariya na jise pyas bujhani aai

garmi-e-ranj-o-alam hi mein basar ki hum ne
zindagi mein to koi rut na suhani aai

us ka unwan tera nam hi rakkha hum ne
bhuli-bisri jo koi yaad kahani aai

hum mohabbat ka bhi minar bana sakte the
hum ko nafrat ki na diwar girani aai

dekh kar us gul-e-shadab ko ek mahfil mein
baad muddat ke phir ek yaad purani aai

aarzu dil ko thi ai 'soz' ghazal-khwani ki
ras aai to hamein marsiya-khwani aai
