shabnam ke aansu phul par ye to wahi qissa hua

shabnam ke aañsū phuul par ye to vahī qissa huā

āñkheñ mirī bhīgī huī chehra tirā utrā huā

ab in dinoñ merī ġhazal ḳhushbū kī ik tasvīr hai

har lafz ġhunche kī tarah khil kar tirā chehra huā

shāyad use bhī le ga.e achchhe dinoñ ke qāfile

is baaġh meñ ik phuul thā terī tarah hañstā huā

har chiiz hai bāzār meñ is haath de us haath le

izzat ga.ī shohrat milī rusvā hue charchā huā

mandir ga.e masjid ga.e pīroñ faqīroñ se mile

ik us ko paane ke liye kyā kyā kiyā kyā kyā huā

anmol motī pyaar ke duniyā churā kar le ga.ī

dil kī havelī kā koī darvāza thā TuuTā huā

barsāt meñ dīvār-o-dar kī saarī tahrīreñ miTīñ

dhoyā bahut miTtā nahīñ taqdīr kā likkhā huā

shabnam ke aansu phul par ye to wahi qissa hua

aankhen meri bhigi hui chehra tera utra hua

ab in dinon meri ghazal KHushbu ki ek taswir hai

har lafz ghunche ki tarah khil kar tera chehra hua

shayad use bhi le gae achchhe dinon ke qafile

is bagh mein ek phul tha teri tarah hansta hua

har chiz hai bazar mein is hath de us hath le

izzat gai shohrat mili ruswa hue charcha hua

mandir gae masjid gae piron faqiron se mile

ek us ko pane ke liye kya kya kiya kya kya hua

anmol moti pyar ke duniya chura kar le gai

dil ki haweli ka koi darwaza tha TuTa hua

barsat mein diwar-o-dar ki sari tahriren miTin

dhoya bahut miTta nahin taqdir ka likkha hua
