Abu Bakr Abbad
chehra us ka surkh gulab
hont bhare yaqut se hain
jhiil si gahri kaali ankhen
chand jabin pe rahta hai
zulfon men ambar ki khushbu
taj-mahal sa us ka jism
ghunchon se bhari daali ki tarah vo
lahrati bal khati hai
be-khaufi be-fikri men
mast magan si rahti hai
jaise madhuban ki baala
jaise hasina gaanv ki
jaisi ‘hasrat’ ki mahbuba
jaisi pyari shah-‘qutub’ ki
jaise ghazal vo ‘mir’ ki ho
haan vo bilkul aisi hi hai
haan vo meri mashuqa hai
meri hi mashuqa hai vo
