band aankhon se wo manzar dekhun

jaane ye kis ki banai hui taswiren hain

agar masjid se waiz aa rahe hain

nazar mein har dushwari rakh

chalo ki KHud hi karen ru-numaiyan apni

han ye taufiq kabhi mujhko KHuda deta tha

har ek hath mein patthar dikhai deta hai

mere junun ka natija zarur niklega

na puchh manzar-e-sham-o-sahar pe kya guzri

pain har ek rah-guzar par udasiyan

daman pe lahu hath mein KHanjar na milega

yakum january hai naya sal hai

KHauf ban kar ye KHayal aata hai aksar mujhko

use bechain kar jaunga main bhi

subh tak main sochta hun sham se
