ye moajiza hamare hi tarz-e-bayan ka tha
wo ek lamha jo tere wasl ka tha
chalo amn-o-aman hai mai-kade mein
ranj-o-gham sahne ki aadat ho gai hai
jugnu tha kahkashan tha sitara tha ya guhar
log ye soch ke hi pareshan hain
ye munsifan-e-shahr hain ye pasban-e-shahr
wo jugnu ho sitara ho ki aansu
tumhaare KHat kabhi paDhna kabhi tartib se rakhna
ranj-o-gham Thokaren mayusi ghuTan be-zari
ye bhi kya baat ki main teri ana ki KHatir
abhi tahzib ka nauha na likhna
jam-e-sharab ab to mere samne na rakh
zara yaadon ke hi patthar uchhaalo
dilon mein karb baDhta ja raha hai
