Kaleem Aajiz
har-chand gham-o-dard ki qimat bhi bahut thi
lena hi paḌa dil ko zarurat bhi bahut thi
zalim tha vo aur zulm ki aadat bhi bahut thi
majbur the ham us se mohabbat bhi bahut thi
go tark-e-ta.alluq men suhulat bhi bahut thi
lekin na hua ham se ki ghairat bhi bahut thi
us but ke sitam sah ke dikha hi diya ham ne
go apni tabi.at men baghavat bhi bahut thi
vaqif hi na tha ramz-e-mohabbat se vo varna
dil ke liye thoḌi si inayat hi bahut thi
yuun hi nahin mash.hur-e-zamana mira qatil
us shaḳhs ko is fan men maharat bhi bahut thi
kya daur-e-ghazal tha ki lahu dil men bahut tha
aur dil ko lahu karne ke fursat bhi bahut thi
har shaam sunate the hasinon ko ghazal ham
jab maal bahut tha to saḳhavat bhi bahut thi
bulva ke ham ‘ajiz’ ko pasheman bhi bahut hain
kya kijiye kam-baḳht ki shohrat bhi bahut thi
