Bashar Ko Mashal-e-iman Se Aagahi Na Mili

bashar ko mashal-e-iman se aagahi na mili

dhuan wo tha ki nigahon ko raushni na mili

KHushi ki marifat aur gham ki aagahi na mili

jise jahan mein mohabbat ki zindagi na mili

jigar na tha ki koi phans si chubhi na mili

jahan ki KHak uDai kahin KHushi na mili

ye kah ke aaKHir-e-shab shama ho gai KHamosh

kisi ki zindagi lene se zindagi na mili

labon pe phail gai ek mauj-e-gham akasr

bichhaD ke tujh se hansi ki tarah hansi na mili

tawaf-e-shama patangon ka jal ke bhi hai wahi

jigar ki aag se aankhon ko raushni na mili

sabaat pa na sakega koi nizam-e-chaman

fasurda ghunchon ko jis mein shaguftagi na mili

falak ke taron se kya dur hogi zulmat-e-shab

jab apne ghar ke charaghon se raushni na mili

abhi shabab hai kar lun KHataen ji bhar ke

phir is maqam pe umr-e-rawan mili na mili

wo qafile ki falak jin ke panw ka tha ghubar

rah-e-hayat se bhaTke to gard bhi na mili

wo tira-baKHt haqiqat mein hai jise 'mulla'

kisi nigah ke sae ki chandni na mili
