wahi madar-e-tamanna wahi sitara-e-dil

kahta hun main ki ghair ne hargiz kaha nahin

giran tha matn mushkil aur bhi tabir paDh lena

talaf karegi kab tak aarzu ki jaan aarzu

is be-KHudi mein ruKHsat KHuddari ho gai hai

sab hai zer-e-bahs jo zahir hai ya poshida hai

ek nashtar-e-nigah hai is se ziyaada kya

hum aadam-zad jo hain roz-e-awwal se kami hai ye

ye nashsha-e-agahi KHatarnak hai sar mein

us se mil kar bhi KHalish dil mein raha karti hai

gudaz tak hi KHarabi hunar sambhaalega

kuchh gharaz hum ko nahin hai ki kahan le jae

hone ko ab kya dekhiye kya kuchh hai aur kya kuchh nahin

kaman saunp ke dushman ko apne lashkar ki

mohabbat chahti hai jis ko afsana bana dena
