Jaanay kiyon woh bheer main tanha lagta hai
Jaisay dasht main koi gulaab tanha khilta hai
Us ki ghazlon ka unwaan hamesha firaaq hota hai
Phir bhi woh harf wasal bar'haa likhta hai
TAqseem jab bhi hoti hai zaat meri tukron main
Woh bhout in'himaak se bikharnay ki sadaa sunta hai
Jab bhi kisi dewanay par waar kartay hain ehal-e-shaher
Sab teer woh apnay seenay pe tanha sehta hai
Ab bhi woh saahil pe kharra lehron ko hasrat se taka karta hai
Jaanay woh kiyon samnadar ko piyaasa likhta hai
Jaisay dasht main koi gulaab tanha khilta hai
Us ki ghazlon ka unwaan hamesha firaaq hota hai
Phir bhi woh harf wasal bar'haa likhta hai
TAqseem jab bhi hoti hai zaat meri tukron main
Woh bhout in'himaak se bikharnay ki sadaa sunta hai
Jab bhi kisi dewanay par waar kartay hain ehal-e-shaher
Sab teer woh apnay seenay pe tanha sehta hai
Ab bhi woh saahil pe kharra lehron ko hasrat se taka karta hai
Jaanay woh kiyon samnadar ko piyaasa likhta hai
