hawas jalwa nahin zauq-e-tamasha bhi nahin
havas jalva nahīñ zauq-e-tamāshā bhī nahīñ
kisī chehre pe tire chehre kā dhokā bhī nahīñ
ġham-gusārī kī tavaqqo.a na dilāse kī umiid
kyā qayāmat hai ki maiñ ishq meñ rusvā bhī nahīñ
vahī mil baiThnā pahroñ vahī ahbāb kī bazm
ḳhud-farebī kā bhalā ho ki maiñ tanhā bhī nahīñ
husn sar-tā-pā taġhāful hai rivāyat ke nisār
tajraba apnā ye kahtā hai ki aisā bhī nahīñ
sāmnā ho to vahī bojh sā jaise dil par
tum se maanā ki kisī baat kā pardā bhī nahīñ
aage aage koī mash.al sī liye chaltā thā
haa.e us shaḳhs kā kyā naam thā pūchhā bhī nahīñ
sirf ḳhalvat kī hai shoḳhī ki abhī tak us ne
'shāz' kah kar mujhe mahfil meñ pukārā bhī nahīñ
hawas jalwa nahin zauq-e-tamasha bhi nahin
kisi chehre pe tere chehre ka dhoka bhi nahin
gham-gusari ki tawaqqoa na dilase ki umid
kya qayamat hai ki main ishq mein ruswa bhi nahin
wahi mil baiThna pahron wahi ahbab ki bazm
KHud-farebi ka bhala ho ki main tanha bhi nahin
husn sar-ta-pa taghaful hai riwayat ke nisar
tajraba apna ye kahta hai ki aisa bhi nahin
samna ho to wahi bojh sa jaise dil par
tum se mana ki kisi baat ka parda bhi nahin
aage aage koi mashal si liye chalta tha
hae us shaKHs ka kya nam tha puchha bhi nahin
sirf KHalwat ki hai shoKHi ki abhi tak us ne
'shaz' kah kar mujhe mahfil mein pukara bhi nahin
