Sufi
bahar-e-zakhm-e-lab-e-atishin hui mujh se
kahani aur asar-afrin hui mujh se
main ik sitara uchhala to nuur phail gaya
shab-e-firaq yunhi dil-nashin hui mujh se
gulab tha ki mahakne laga mujhe chhu kar
kalai thi ki bahut marmarin hui mujh se
baghal se saanp nikale to ho gaya badnam
kharab achchhi tarah astin hui mujh se
kahan se aai hai khushbu mujhe bhi hairat hai
ye raat kaise gul-e-asmin hui mujh se
main apne phuul khilae hain us ki jhadi par
qaba-e-yar bahut reshmin hui mujh se
bas ek bosa diya tha kisi ke mathe par
tamam-shahr ki raushan jabin hui mujh se
ghazal suni to bahut dil se khush hua ‘atif’
magar ghazal ki sataish nahin hui mujh se
