jo baawfa nahin wafa ka us se bhi sawaal kya
use to kuchh pata nahin haraam kya halaal kya

use to kuchh pata nahin KHuda ka hai jalaal kya
jo kaat de jawaani apni bas bure hi kaamon men
use to kuchh pata nahin ye husn ka kamaal kya

ghazal ke husn ka jab ham singaar karte hain
har ek lafz ko aainaadaar karte hain
banaa banaa ke mitaate hain saikron khaake
tab ek she'r ko behtar shumaar karte hain
