palaT sakun hi na aage hi baDh sakun jis par

hae wo log gae chand se milne aur phir

aankh se dur sahi dil se kahan jaega

ahl-e-dil ke darmiyan the mir tum

KHurshid misal shaKHs kal sham

jo aa rahi hai sada ghaur se suno usko

koi aur to nahin hai pas-e-KHanjar-azmai

zamin ke log to kya do dilon ki chahat mein

ye kaisi bichhaDne ki saza hai

raushni aadhi idhar aadhi udhar

tum ham-safar hue to hui zindagi aziz

dosto jashn manao ki bahaar aai hai

jab mila husn bhi harjai to us bazm se hum

kash dekho kabhi TuTe hue aainon ko

shayad is rah pe kuchh aur bhi rahi aaen
