yun to main nahin hun tere farman se bahar
chahun jo na tujh ko ye hai imkan se bahar

is ru-e-kitabi pe pasina hai na ghaza
shayad hai tar-o-khushk isi quran se bahar

mar kar bhi main wahshat hi ke qabu mein rahunga
khak ud ke na jaegi bayaban se bahar

hai qabza-e-qudrat mein gham-e-ishq-e-haqiqi
ab charkh ye khana hai tere khwan se bahar

dyodhi mein mahal ki hamein jo chahe suna le
samjhenge kisi din tere darban se bahar

gosh-e-dil-o-jaan mein hain amanat teri baaten
moti kabhi niklenge na is kan se bahar

ghar baithe ho kis tarah tere husn ka shohra
yusuf ko mila martaba kanan se bahar

phir niklen mah-o-mehr chamak kar to main jaanun
be-parda agar aao tum aiwan se bahar

wo basta-e-zanjir-e-khamoshi hun ki ta-hashr
nikle mere nale bhi na zindan se bahar

chaaron taraf ek dam mein nai chandni chhitki
shab ko nikal aae jo wo dalan se bahar

nashshe mein unhin ke mujhe darkar hain bose
jo pista-e-khandan hain gazak-dan se bahar

sajda tumhein kar baithenge kuffar-o-musalman
ab ke bhi agar aaoge is shan se bahar

ab hath magar gardan-e-nazuk mein pada hai
hoga na gila un ka gareban se bahar

sabit-qadam-e-marka aa pahunche ab ai ishq
sar de ke bhi jaenge na maidan se bahar

ghairon ke tasawwur mein rasai hui kyunkar
kis waqt gae aap mere dhyan se bahar

ausaf-e-qad-e-yar bhi mauzun karo ai 'bazm'
kyon nur ka misra rahe diwan se bahar
