ab kahan dost milen sath nibhane wale
unhen na toliye tahzib ke taraazu mein
log kahte hain dil lagana jise
apni urdu to mohabbat ki zaban thi pyare
bujh gai shama ki lau tere dupaTTe se to kya
baDa ghaTe ka sauda hai sada ye sans lena bhi
mohabbat ke marizon ka mudawa hai zara mushkil
dil jalao ya diye aankhon ke darwaze par
