saadagii par us kii mar jaane kii hasarat dil me.n hai


saadagii par us kii mar jaane kii hasarat dil me.n hai
bas nahii.n chalataa ki phir Khanjar kaf-e-qaatil me.n hai

dekhanaa taqariir kii lazzat ki jo usane kahaa
mai.nne yah jaanaa ki goyaa yah bhii mere dil me.n hai

garache hai kis kis buraa_ii se vale baa ii.n hamaa
zikr meraa mujh se behatar hai ki us mahafil me.n hai

bas hujuum-e-naa umiidii Khaak me.n mil jaayagii
yah jo ik lazzat hamaarii sa_i-e-behaasil me.n hai

ra.nj-e-rah kyo.n khe.nchiye vaamaa.ndagii ko ishq hai
uTh nahii.n sakataa hamaaraa jo qadam ma.nzil me.n hai

jalvaa zaar-e-aatash-e-dozaKh hamaaraa dil sahii
fitanaa-e-shor-e-qayaamat kis kii aab-o-gil me.n hai

hai dil-e-shoriidaa-e-Gaalib tilism-e-pech-o-taab
raham kar apanii tamannaa par ki kis mushkil me.n hai
