Ghazal
गर ख़ामुशी से फ़ाएदा इख़्फ़ा-ए-हाल है
This ghazal explores the paradoxical benefits of silence in concealing one's true state, leading to a profound sense of isolation where unspoken desires accumulate within the heart. It delves into the mystery of divine mercy that answers even unasked prayers, and contemplates the unthinkable notion of the beloved as an adversary, questioning such thoughts born from an abashed longing.

गर ख़ामुशी से फ़ाएदा इख़्फ़ा-ए-हाल है
ख़ुश हूँ कि मेरी बात समझनी मुहाल है
If silence serves to keep one's state concealed,I'm glad my words can never be revealed.
If the benefit of silence is to conceal one's state, then I am glad that understanding my words is impossible.

किस को सुनाऊँ हसरत-ए-इज़हार का गिला
दिल फ़र्द-ए-जमा-ओ-ख़र्च ज़बाँ-हा-ए-लाल है
To whom shall I narrate this lament, this yearning to express?
My heart's the ledger, where ruby tongues keep tally of all they could be.
To whom shall I narrate this complaint of the yearning to express? My heart is the ledger of income and expenditure for ruby tongues.

किस पर्दे में है आइना-पर्दाज़ ऐ ख़ुदा
रहमत कि उज़्र-ख़्वाह-ए-लब-ए-बे-सवाल है

है है ख़ुदा-न-ख़्वास्ता वो और दुश्मनी
ऐ शौक़-ए-मुन्फ़इल ये तुझे क्या ख़याल है
Alas, God forbid! Him, and such enmity?O shamefaced longing, what thought possesses thee?
Alas, God forbid, him and enmity? Oh, ashamed longing, what thought is this that has come to you?

मुश्कीं लिबास-ए-काबा अली के क़दम से जान
नाफ़-ए-ज़मीन है न कि नाफ़-ए-ग़ज़ाल है
Know that Kaaba's musk-dark raiment, by Ali's sacred tread,Is the earth's very navel, not a gazelle's fragrant bed.
Know that the Kaaba's musk-colored garment, by Ali's foot, is the earth's navel, not a gazelle's navel.

वहशत पे मेरी अरसा-ए-आफ़ाक़ तंग था
दरिया ज़मीन को अरक़-ए-इंफ़िआ'ल है
My wildness made the world's expanse seem small and bound,Dariya zameen ko araq-e-infia'al hai
My wildness made the expanse of the world feel constrained. The river is the earth's sweat of shame.

हस्ती के मत फ़रेब में आ जाइयो 'असद'
आलम तमाम हल्क़ा-ए-दाम-ए-ख़याल है

पहलू-तही न कर ग़म-ओ-अंदोह से 'असद'
