Kisi ki bewafai bais-e-herat nahiN hoti

Bohat khud ko jalata hooN ye barsoN ki riazat he
Mire andar ki lekin door ye zulmat nahiN hoti

Ye dukh he ke kisi ne bhi hamiN dil se nahiN chaha
Zara sa piyar mil jata to ye halat nahiN hoti

Zamin-o-aasmaaN maiN ik tauluk to he sadyooN se
magar peda kahiN bhi rabt ki soorat nahiN hoti

Ajab hi falsfa he ye ameeri aur gharibi ka
ke umraiN sarf ho jati haiN kam ghurbat nahiN hoti

Bohat se khoob chehray haiN bohat si dilruba nazraiN
Tire hone se hoti thi jo kefi^at nahiN hoti

Hawala jab talak tera na aa jaye kahiN in maiN
mire sheroN maiN peda tab talak jiddat nahiN hoti

Tire gumnaam mer janay maiN AZHAR kya buraie he
ke her insaan ki kismat maiN to shohrat nahiN hoti
