Aarzu Tadbir Ho Kar Rah Gai

aarzu tadbir ho kar rah gai

justuju taKHir ho kar rah gai

sard sannaTa musallat ho gaya

be-hisi zanjir ho kar rah gai

soch ki aawaz kitni tez hai

KHamushi taqrir ho kar rah gai

jab bhi ki tahrir apni dastan

teri hi taswir ho kar rah gai

kaT hai alfaz ki kitni shadid

guftugu shamshir ho kar rah gai

aah ye din rain ki bechain soch

jo meri taqdir ho kar rah gai

said-e-taKHrib-e-KHirad hai zindagi

hasrat-e-tamir ho kar rah gai

harf-e-sanjida thi rudad-e-KHirad

kitni be-tasir ho kar rah gai

ahd-e-hazir ki kitabi shairi

fikr ki jagir ho kar rah gai

mere fikr-o-fan ki azmat aaKHirash

shoKHi-e-tahrir ho kar rah gai

'kirshn' mohan KHwab ki tabir bhi

dard ki tafsir ho kar rah gai
