phir usi shoKH ki taswir utar aai hai

mere qarib se guzra ek ajnabi ki tarah

mubtala ruh ke azab mein hun

naqd-e-dil-o-jaan uski KHatir rahn-e-jam karo

raat bhi baqi hai sahba bhi shisha bhi paimana bhi

lab tak jo na aaya tha wahi harf-e-rasa tha

har marg-e-arzu ka nishan der tak raha

ek na aane wale ka intizar karte hain

ghair ki aag mein koi bhi na jalna chahe

lutf se tere siwa dard mahak jata hai

fasl-e-gul tohmat-e-junun lai

mahtab hai na aks-e-ruKH-e-yar ab koi

diye hain ranj sare aagahi ne

charagh-e-zist ke donon sire jalao mat

na KHuda hai na naKHuda hai koi
