Tilism-Zar-E-Shab-E-Mah Mein Guzar Jae

Ghazal
Tilism-Zar-E-Shab-E-Mah Mein Guzar Jae
Ab itni raat gae kaun apne ghar jae

Ajab nasha hai tere qurb mein ki ji chahe
Ye zindagi teri aaghosh mein guzar jae

Main tere jism mein kuchh is tarah sama jaun
Ki tera lams meri ruh mein utar jae

Misal-e-barg-e-khizan hai hawa ki zad pe ye dil
Na jaane shakh se bichhde to phir kidhar jae

Main yun udas hun imshab ki jaise rang-e-gulab
Khizan ki chap se be-sakhta utar jae

Hawa-e-sham-e-judai hai aur gham lahaq
Na jaane jism ki diwar kab bikhar jae

Agar na shab ka safar ho tere husul ki shart
Farogh-e-mahr tera e’tibar mar jae
