ye jo mohlat jise kahe hain umr

dikhai diye yun ki be-KHud kiya

ishq hai ishq karne walon ko

jab ki pahlu se yar uThta hai

KHuda ko kaam to saunpe hain maine sab lekin

hamare aage tera jab kisu ne nam liya

dil mujhe us gali mein le ja kar

ru-e-suKHan hai kidhar ahl-e-jahan ka ya rab

sab pe jis bar ne girani ki

kaifiyyaten attar ke launDe mein bahut thin

dilli ke na the kuche auraq-e-musawwar the

iqrar mein kahan hai inkar ki si surat

jam gaya KHun kaf-e-qatil pe tera mir zi-bas

kapDe gale ke mere na hon aab-dida kyun

ishq hi ishq hai jahan dekho
