Ghazal 53

tang aa chuke hain kashmakash-e-zindagi se hum

kabhi KHud pe kabhi haalat pe rona aaya

ye zulf agar khul ke bikhar jae to achchha

main zindagi ka sath nibhata chala gaya

chehre pe KHushi chha jati hai aankhon mein surur aa jata hai

Nazm 89

KHub-surat moD

chalo ek bar phir se ajnabi ban jaen hum donon

kabhi kabhi

kabhi kabhi mere dil mein KHayal aata hai

taj-mahal

taj tere liye ek mazhar-e-ulfat hi sahi

ye mahlon ye taKHton ye tajon ki duniya

ye mahlon ye taKHton ye tajon ki duniya

main pal do pal ka shair hun

main pal do pal ka shair hun pal do pal meri kahani hai

Sher 69

tañg aa chuke haiñ kashmakash-e-zindagī se ham

Thukrā na deñ jahāñ ko kahīñ be-dilī se ham

tang aa chuke hain kashmakash-e-zindagi se hum

Thukra na den jahan ko kahin be-dili se hum

kabhī ḳhud pe kabhī hālāt pe ronā aayā

baat niklī to har ik baat pe ronā aayā

kabhi KHud pe kabhi haalat pe rona aaya

baat nikli to har ek baat pe rona aaya

kaun rotā hai kisī aur kī ḳhātir ai dost

sab ko apnī hī kisī baat pe ronā aayā

who does ever weep for others' sake my friend

everybody cries

kaun rota hai kisi aur ki KHatir ai dost

sab ko apni hi kisi baat pe rona aaya

who does ever weep for others' sake my friend

everybody cries

Qita 4

na munh chhupa ke jiye hum na sar jhuka ke jiye

wajh-e-be-rangi-e-gulzar kahun to kya ho

jahan jahan teri nazron ki os Tapki hai

tapte dil par yun girti hai

Geet 49

zindagi-bhar nahin bhulegi wo barsat ki raat

ab wo karam karen ki sitam main nashe mein hun

mujhe gale se laga lo bahut udas hun main

jaane wo kaise log the jinko pyar se pyar mila

mere dil mein aaj kya hai tu kahe to main bata dun
