Poet
dil-e-shikasta bhi tha koi razdan bhi na tha
vo mehrban sahi par itna mehrban bhi na tha
rivayaton ke tilismat toḌ kar ye khula
gham-e-zamana koi jaur-e-asman bhi na tha
muamalat gham-e-dosti salamat-bash
vo e’tibar ki andesha-e-guman bhi na tha
zamana-saz kabhi taba-e-mah-ruḳhan bhi na thi
ki is mizaj ka andaz-e-dil-baran bhi na tha
mohabbaton ke qarine badal ga.e aḳhir
main is ke dar pe jo pahuncha to pasban bhi na tha
tamam shahr pe taari hai kaisa sannaTa
sukut-e-sub.h men avaza-e-azan bhi na tha
