KHud Apne Aap Se Ye Gila Umr Bhar Kiya

KHud apne aap se ye gila umr bhar kiya

kaise tere firaq ka mausam basar kiya

minqar se hawa ne likhi dastan-e-hijr

yun harf-e-mo'tabar ko bhi na-mo'tabar kiya

kaisi hawa chali ki man barishon ke baad

har be-gulab rut ne gulistan mein ghar kiya

KHud hum ne kaT kaT di zanjir sans ki

KHud hum ne zindagi ka safar muKHtasar kiya

be-ab aainon ko bhi ek aab baKHsh di

har chand be-hunar the ye kar-e-hunar kiya

sare sutun ret ki buniyaad par uThae

hum ne kis ehtiyat se tamir ghar kiya

duniya simaT ke ek hi nukte mein aa gai

hum ne jab apni zat ke andar safar kiya

tha mir ji ko izzat-e-sadat ka KHayal

hum ne suKHan ko jins-e-dukan-e-hunar kiya

mauqa-shanas qasr-e-hawas mein pahunch gae

tai marhala uDan ka be-baal-o-par kiya

KHushbu mere badan se KHud aa kar lipaT gai

'mohsin' ye kis dayar se main ne guzar kiya
