ghazal:Mujhse pucho ki sahi dard kahan hote hain!

Wo jo khamoosh sar-e-bazm-e-jahaa.N hota he
Us ke seene mai.N koi raaz nihaa.N hota he

Bazm-e-imkaa.N he nihaa.N gard-e-tajarbaat mai.N yoo.N
Jis tarah dasht pas-e-gard nihaa.N hoota he

Jhoot lagti he sara ser ye haqeeqat mujh ko
Mujh ko imkaa.N pe haqeeqat ka gumaa.N hota he

Sath-e-aaena se chat jay ager gard-e-yaqee.N
Tab he aaene pe imkaan ayaa.N hota he

Na ho paband-e-riwayat ye zabaa.N tab mumkin
Dasht-e-imkaan ki wusaat ka bayaa.N hota he

Jo ho mehdood nazar hadd-e-yaqee.N ke ander
Dasht-e-imkaa.N se use rabt kahaa.N hota he

Jis tarah gard-e-tayyaqqun mai.N haqaiq hai.N yahaa.N
Kiya koi gard mai.N aise bhi nihaa.N hota he?

Saaf khulta he nahi.N dil p eke ab kiya hooga
Aik khatka sa mager dil ko yahaa.N hota he

Jab ye ahssas –e-zayaa.N had se guzar jaata he
Aik ahsaas naya dil mai.N jawaa.N hota he

Kiyoo.N bharose pe tajerbe ke dawa kerte ho
Mujh se pooch tu sahi dard kahaa.N hota he
