milta jo koi TukDa is charKH-e-zabarjad mein

takalluf hai murad-e-dil ka dil par bar ho jaana

wasl ki ummid baDhte baDhte thak kar rah gai

aankh paDte hi na tha nam shakebai ka

bala hi ishq lekin har bashar qabil nahin hota

tez mujh par jo sitamgar ki chhuri hoti hai

aaina-e-ibrat hai mera dil bhi jigar bhi

mera dil dad-KHwah-e-zulm aslan ho nahin sakta

yun akela dasht-e-ghurbat mein dil-e-nakaam tha

ahl-e-gham se ishrat-e-alam ka saman ho gaya

kaun in lakhon adaon mein mujhe pyari nahin

baDe shabab pe dard-e-firaq-e-masti hai

hazar phul liye mausam-e-bahaar aae

husn ki wo suraten KHwab-e-pareshan ho gain

tirgi nam hai dil walon ke uTh jaane ka
