ajab ek waqt gulshan mein ye paigham-e-bahaar aaya
junun-e-shauq mein mahw-e-tamasha ho gae hum tum
ishq ki dastan kya kahiye
be-zabani zaban hoti hai
furqat ka fusun phail gaya sham se pahle
zaban par shikwa-e-dar-o-rasan laya nahin jata
yaad-e-mazi ye kya kiya tu ne
gham ka hamil na kuchh KHushi ka hai
ab hasti-e-KHarab ka aalam sanwar gaya
na humne aankh laDai na KHwab mein dekha
husn ko be-naqab hone do
aankhon ko ashk-bar kiya kya bura kiya
leta hun tera nam har ek nam se pahle
tumko nahin hai yaad abhi kal ki baat hai
apne ashkon ki ye barsat kise pesh karun
