zara kar jor seene par ki teer-e-pursitam nikle

jo wo nikle to dil nikle, jo dil nikle to dam nikle


KHuda ke waaste parda na kaabe se uThaa zaalim

kaheeN 'eisa na ho yaaN bhee wohee kaafir sanam nikle


kahaaN maiKHaane ka darwaaza 'GHalib' aur kahaaN waaiz

par itana jaante haiN kal wo jaata tha ke ham nikle


GHair firta hai liye yooN tere KHat ko ki agar

koee pooche ki yeh kya hai ? to chipaaye na bane


is nazaakat ka bura ho, woh bhale haiN to kya

haaNth aaye to unhaiN haaNth lagaaye na bane
