wo sadaen deta raha ho maine suna na ho kahin yun na ho
apni yakjai mein bhi KHud se juda rahta hun
nazar aate nahin hain bahr mein hum
nigah karne mein lagta hai kya zamana koi
waqif KHud apni chashm-e-gurezan se kaun hai
qismat mein agar judaiyan hain
KHizan ki rut hai janam-din hai aur dhuan aur phul
kaam itni hi faqat rahguzar aaegi
mohabbaten thin kuchh aisi visal ho ke raha
kisi taur ho na pinhan tera rang-e-ru-siyahi
nazar se dur hain dil se juda na hum hain na tum
din ko mismar hue raat ko tamir hue
chhane honge sahra jis ne wo hi jaan saka hoga
tanhai tamir karegi ghar se behtar ek zindan
dobara hone lage manzaron mein manzar gum
