guftugu achchhi lagi zauq-e-nazar achchha laga
muddaton ke baad koi ham-safar achchha laga
dil ka dukh jaana to dil ka masala hai par hamen
us ka hans dena hamare haal par achchha laga
har tarah ki be-sar-o-samaniyon ke bavajud
aaj vo aaya to mujh ko apna ghar achchha laga
baghban gulchin ko chahe jo kahe ham ko to phuul
shakh se badh kar kaf-e-dildar par achchha laga
koi maqtal men na pahuncha kaun zalim tha jise
tegh-e-qatil se ziyada apna sar achchha laga
ham bhi qaael hain vafa men ustuvari ke magar
koi puchhe kaun kis ko umr bhar achchha laga
apni apni chahaten hain log ab jo bhi kahen
ik pari-paikar ko ik ashufta-sar achchha laga
‘mir’ ke manind aksar ziist karta tha ‘faraz’
tha to vo divana sa shair magar achchha laga
