Aaina-KHana Bhi Andoh-e-tamanna Nikla

aaina-KHana bhi andoh-e-tamanna nikla

ghaur se dekha to apna hi tamasha nikla

zindagi mahfil-e-shab ki thi pas-andaz-e-sharab

pine baiThe to bas ek ghunT zara sa nikla

phir chala mausam-e-wahshat mein sar-e-maqtal-e-ishq

qura-e-fal mere nam dobara nikla

dad-e-shaistagi-e-gham ki tawaqqo be-sud

dil bhi kam-baKHt taraf-dar usi ka nikla

hai ajab tarz ka rahraw dil-e-shorida-qadam

jab bhi nikla safar-e-ishq pe tanha nikla

wo raqibon ka pata puchhne aae mere ghar

koi to un se mulaqat ka rasta nikla

dar-ba-dar KHwar hue phirte hain hum hijr-nasib

jaan-sipari ka bhi kya KHub natija nikla

dil mein uThte rahe yaadon ke bagule 'tishna'

mujh mein simTa hua ek dard ka sahra nikla
