kahan aaya hai diwanon ko tera kuchh qarar ab tak

ruKH pe gesu jo bikhar jaenge

KHizan jab tak chali jati nahin hai

nigah-e-qahr hogi ya mohabbat ki nazar hogi

chaman ko lag gai kis ki nazar KHuda jaane

sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamare dil mein hai

tang aa gae hain kya karen is zindagi se hum

sochne ka bhi nahin waqt mayassar mujhko

ab mulaqat kahan shishe se paimane se

jab kabhi nam-e-mohamad lab pe mere aae hai

ye but phir ab ke bahut sar uTha ke baiThe hain

KHizan ke jaane se ho ya bahaar aane se

sari ummid rahi jati hai

ab dam-ba-KHud hain nabz ki raftar dekh kar

ab raha kya hai jo ab aae hain aane wale
