to tai hua na ki jab bhi likhna ruton ke sare azab likhna
to tai huā nā ki jab bhī likhnā rutoñ ke saare azaab likhnā
ujaaḌ mausam maiñ tapte sahrā ko aab likhnā habāb likhnā
qarār-e-jāñ hai tumhārā va.ada ki ghar pahuñch kar maiñ bhej dūñgī
maiñ muntazir hoñ tumhāre ḳhat kā shikāyatoñ kā javāb likhnā
mujhe yaqīñ hai nasīb merā na saath degā ki tajraba hai
sukūn ko iztirāb kahnā haqīqatoñ ko sarāb likhnā
ye terī ġhazleñ bayāñ nahīñ haiñ visāl-e-shab kī navāzishoñ kā
jo ho sake masnavī meñ saarā vo aks-e-kaif-e-shabāb likhnā
aziyyatoñ ke safar meñ maiñ ne bharam rakhā phir bhī hausloñ kā
munāfiqat ke jahāñ meñ mujh ko sadāqatoñ kā nisāb likhnā
ye daur ahl-e-qalam pe bhārī ki maslahat kī sabīl jaarī
gunāh ko bhī savāb kahnā babūl ko bhī gulāb likhnā
havā ke māthe pa darj tahrīr mausamoñ kī tamāzatoñ se
jo miT ga.ī hai to kyā huā hai na.e sire se ye baab likhnā
gulāb-rut meñ ye zardiyoñ ke nuqūsh chehre pe dekh lenā
hamāre baare maiñ kuchh na kahnā pa ibratoñ kī kitāb likhnā
harī bharī khetiyāñ kahāñ haiñ mire muqaddar ke zā.iche haiñ
shahīd-e-ishq-e-vafā kā 'tāhir' hatheliyoñ par hisāb likhnā
to tai hua na ki jab bhi likhna ruton ke sare azab likhna
ujaD mausam main tapte sahra ko aab likhna habab likhna
qarar-e-jaan hai tumhaara wada ki ghar pahunch kar main bhej dungi
main muntazir hon tumhaare KHat ka shikayaton ka jawab likhna
mujhe yaqin hai nasib mera na sath dega ki tajraba hai
sukun ko iztirab kahna haqiqaton ko sarab likhna
ye teri ghazlen bayan nahin hain visal-e-shab ki nawazishon ka
jo ho sake masnawi mein sara wo aks-e-kaif-e-shabab likhna
aziyyaton ke safar mein main ne bharam rakha phir bhi hauslon ka
munafiqat ke jahan mein mujh ko sadaqaton ka nisab likhna
ye daur ahl-e-qalam pe bhaari ki maslahat ki sabil jari
gunah ko bhi sawab kahna babul ko bhi gulab likhna
hawa ke mathe pa darj tahrir mausamon ki tamazaton se
jo miT gai hai to kya hua hai nae sire se ye bab likhna
gulab-rut mein ye zardiyon ke nuqush chehre pe dekh lena
hamare bare main kuchh na kahna pa ibraton ki kitab likhna
hari bhari khetiyan kahan hain mere muqaddar ke zaiche hain
shahid-e-ishq-e-wafa ka 'tahir' hatheliyon par hisab likhna
