Siddique Mujibi
raat hui phir ham se ik nadani thoḌi si
dil sarkash tha kar baiTha man-mani thoḌi si
thoḌi si sarshari ne di gahri dhund men raah
baham hui a.ankhon ko tab asani thoḌi si
bichhḌa vo to lauT aane ki raah na khoTi ki
kunj men dil ke chhoḌ gaya virani thoḌi si
ya-rab phir se bhej tilism-e-hosh-ruba koi
vaqt ata kar phir ham ko hairani thoḌi si
ham aaise be-maya kab the hathon-hath biken
bazaron tak le aa.i arzani thoḌi si
na.i ghazal ka ruup naya ho lekin aisa ho
ghazlon men ho a.ina-samani thoḌi si
us ke chal-chalan par mat ja yaar ‘mujibi’ tu
yuun bhi javani hoti hai divani thoḌi si
