suhani numud-e-jahan ki ghadi thi
tabassum-fashan zindagi ki kali thi
kahin muhr ko taj-e-zar mil raha tha
ata chand ko chandni ho rahi thi
siyah pairahan sham ko de rahe the
sitaron ko talim-e-tabindagi thi
kahin shakh-e-hasti ko lagte the patte
kahin zindagi ki kali phutti thi
farishte sikhate the shabnam ko rona
hansi gul ko pahle-pahal aa rahi thi
ata dard hota tha shair ke dil ko
khudi tishna-kaam mai-e-be-khudi thi
uthi awwal awwal ghata kali kali
koi hur choti ko khole khadi thi
zamin ko tha dawa ki main aasman hun
makan kah raha tha ki main la-makan hun
gharaz is qadar ye nazara tha pyara
ki nazargi ho sarapa nazara
malak aazmate the parwaz apni
jabinon se nur-e-azal aashkara
farishta tha ek ishq tha nam jis ka
ki thi rahbari us ki sab ka sahaara
farishta ki putla tha be-tabiyon ka
malak ka malak aur pare ka para
pae sair firdaus ko ja raha tha
qaza se mila rah mein wo qaza-ra
ye puchha tera nam kya kaam kya hai
nahin aankh ko did teri gawara
hua sun ke goya qaza ka farishta
ajal hun mera kaam hai aashkara
udati hun main rakht-e-hasti ke purze
bujhati hun main zindagi ka sharara
meri aankh mein jadu-e-nisti hai
payam-e-fana hai usi ka ishaara
magar ek hasti hai duniya mein aisi
wo aatish hai main samne us ke para
sharar ban ke rahti hai insan ke dil mein
wo hai nur-e-mutlaq ki aankhon ka tara
tapakti hai aankhon se ban ban ke aansu
wo aansu ki ho jin ki talkhi gawara
suni ishq ne guftugu jab qaza ki
hansi us ke lab par hui aashkara
giri is tabassum ki bijli ajal par
andhere ka ho nur mein kya guzara
baqa ko jo dekha fana ho gai wo
qaza thi shikar qaza ho gai wo
tabassum-fashan zindagi ki kali thi
kahin muhr ko taj-e-zar mil raha tha
ata chand ko chandni ho rahi thi
siyah pairahan sham ko de rahe the
sitaron ko talim-e-tabindagi thi

aflak se aata hai nalon ka jawab aakhir
karte hain khitab aakhir uthte hain hijab aakhir
ahwal-e-mohabbat mein kuchh farq nahin aisa
soz o tab-o-tab awwal soz o tab-o-tab aakhir
main tujh ko batata hun taqdir-e-umam kya hai
shamshir-o-sinan awwal taus-o-rubab aakhir
mai-khana-e-europe ke dastur nirale hain
late hain surur awwal dete hain sharab aakhir
kya dabdaba-e-nadir kya shaukat-e-taimuri
ho jate hain sab daftar gharq-e-mai-e-nab aakhir
khalwat ki ghadi guzri jalwat ki ghadi aai
chhutne ko hai bijli se aaghosh-e-sahab aakhir
tha zabt bahut mushkil is sail-e-maani ka
kah dale qalandar ne asrar-e-kitab aakhir
karte hain khitab aakhir uthte hain hijab aakhir
ahwal-e-mohabbat mein kuchh farq nahin aisa
soz o tab-o-tab awwal soz o tab-o-tab aakhir
main tujh ko batata hun taqdir-e-umam kya hai

jab ishq sikhata hai aadab-e-khud-agahi
khulte hain ghulamon par asrar-e-shahanshahi
'attar' ho 'rumi' ho 'raazi' ho 'ghazali' ho
kuchh hath nahin aata be-ah-e-sahar-gahi
naumid na ho in se ai rahbar-e-farzana
kam-kosh to hain lekin be-zauq nahin rahi
ai tair-e-lahauti us rizq se maut achchhi
jis rizq se aati ho parwaz mein kotahi
dara o sikandar se wo mard-e-faqir aula
ho jis ki faqiri mein bu-e-asadul-lahi
aain-e-jawan-mardan haq-goi o be-baki
allah ke sheron ko aati nahin rubahi
khulte hain ghulamon par asrar-e-shahanshahi
'attar' ho 'rumi' ho 'raazi' ho 'ghazali' ho
kuchh hath nahin aata be-ah-e-sahar-gahi
naumid na ho in se ai rahbar-e-farzana
kam-kosh to hain lekin be-zauq nahin rahi
ai tair-e-lahauti us rizq se maut achchhi
jis rizq se aati ho parwaz mein kotahi
dara o sikandar se wo mard-e-faqir aula
ho jis ki faqiri mein bu-e-asadul-lahi
aain-e-jawan-mardan haq-goi o be-baki
allah ke sheron ko aati nahin rubahi
