Poet
chaman vahi hai ghataen vahi bahar vahi
magar gulon men vo ab rang-o-bu nahin baaqi
hai dil-kashi men vahi ab bhi mausamon ki bahar
nazar men kaifiyat-e-rang-o-bu nahin baaqi
shabab-e-dahr ki ab bhi hai vo faravani
magar khayal men josh-e-numu nahin baaqi
hai dil men dard bhi pahlu men dil bhi hai lekin
kisi ke dard pe rone ki khu nahin baaqi
haram ki sham-e-farozan hai aaj bhi lekin
tajassus-e-nazar-e-shola-ju nahin baaqi
gale to milte hain ahbab ai ‘haya’ ab bhi
magar dilon men sadaqat ki bu nahin baaqi
