Ishq Hai Us Zulf Ka Sartaj Aaj

ishq hai us zulf ka sartaj aaj

hai rasul-e-husn ki mearaj aaj

nok-e-mizhgan par nahin hai laKHt-e-dil

dar par khincha gaya hallaj aaj

tark chashm-e-yar ke tewar hain aur

KHirman-e-taqat ka hai taraj aaj

tegh-e-abru kal paDi dil par mere

tir mizhgan ka hua aamaj aaj

chuse hain us ke misi aaluda-lab

main ne nilam ka kiya pokhraj aaj

wasl ki marzi thi kal us shoKH ki

phir gaya wo waqt-e-istimzaj aaj

likkha hai jo wasf abru ka 'waqar'

sher-sheari se na le kyun baj aaj
