Ghazal

Shab-e-hijr! meray ishq ko, rukhna yunhi ba.purda

Na ho khabr sitaron ko, rahon bhalay main azurda

Dil ager bhula bhi dae, laghzishain nigahon ki,

Rakhna tum mager phir bhi, hisab-e-jurm-e-nakarda

Hota khuda, tou rakhta main, teray gunahon ki khabar

Hoon baikhabr, chalo acha hai, rahay baqi zara purda

Barha jo ishq, bana junoon, mila na phir kahin sakoon,

Woh majnu ishq ki wadi main, sadyon se hai sargarda

Liye sawal ankhon main, aur haton main shakista dil

Merta hai wo hur shab, kaho nahi ussay murda.
