Falsafi Kis Liye Ilzam-e-fana Deta Hai

falsafi kis liye ilzam-e-fana deta hai

lafz-e-kun KHud meri hasti ka pata deta hai

ho gaya tark-e-marasim ko zamana lekin

aaj tak dil teri nazron ko dua deta hai

thartharaate hue hathon se dawa ke badle

chaaragar aaj na jaane mujhe kya deta hai

kuchh to hota hai hasinon ko bhi ehsas-e-jamal

aur kuchh ishq bhi maghrur bana deta hai

soz-e-ulfat se wo kam-maya-e-gham hai mahrum

aatish-e-dil ko jo ashkon se bujha deta hai

parda-dari bhi hai ek maslihat-e-KHas-e-jamal

shauq nazzare ki qimat ko baDha deta hai

zindagi de ke musibat mein hamein Dal diya

koi yun bhi kahin be-jurm saza deta hai

dar mil hi gai mansur ko waiz warna

kaun duniya mein mohabbat ka sila deta hai

hae us bekas-o-majbur ki qismat 'arshi'

sham se pahle hi jo shama jala deta hai
