Ghazal 62

main sar chhupaun kahan saya-e-nazar ke baghair

zindagi maut ke pahlu mein bhali lagti hai

dil ke andar dard aankhon mein nami ban jaiye

baiThe hain sunahri kashti mein aur samne nila pani hai

ban ke duniya ka tamasha moatabar ho jaenge

Nazm 20

mohabbat

aisi quwwat jo sarf nahin hoti hai

mashriq haar gaya

kipling ne kaha tha

khel

sham ko daftar ke baad

aankhen

jine ke mani aankhen hain

ab

wo ek lamha jo ab nahin hai

Sher 68

nikal ga.e haiñ jo bādal barasne vaale the

ye shahr aab ko tarsegā chashm-e-tar ke baġhair

nikal gae hain jo baadal barasne wale the

ye shahr aab ko tarsega chashm-e-tar ke baghair

dar-ba-dar Thokareñ khā.īñ to ye mālūm huā

ghar kise kahte haiñ kyā chiiz hai be-ghar honā

dar-ba-dar Thokaren khain to ye malum hua

ghar kise kahte hain kya chiz hai be-ghar hona

us ek chehre meñ ābād the ka.ī chehre

us ek shaḳhs meñ kis kis ko dekhtā thā maiñ

us ek chehre mein aabaad the kai chehre

us ek shaKHs mein kis kis ko dekhta tha main
