aaya ye kaun saya-e-zulf-e-daraaz mein

hum mohabbat ka sabaq bhul gae

ba-qadr-e-paimana-e-taKHayyul surur har dil mein hai KHudi ka

nahin afsun hi ko afsane ki manzil malum

ai sajda-farosh-e-ku-e-butan har sar ke liye ek chaukhaT hai

hone do charaghan mahlon mein kya hum ko agar diwali hai

inhi hairat-zada aankhon se dekhe hain wo aansu bhi

kise KHabar thi ki le kar charagh-e-mustafawi

buton ko toD ke aisa KHuda banana kya

jalane wale jalate hi hain charagh aaKHir
