meri taqdir shikwa-sanj daur-e-asman kyun ho

lafz to milte nahin izhaar-e-mahsusat ko

jis qadar qalb ki taskin ke saman honge

KHud tark-e-muddaa par majbur ho gaya hun

pahle dard-e-dil pe kahte the ki ye kya ho gaya

tajdid-e-ahd kar kisi simin badan ke sath

aarzu rakhna mohabbat mein baDa mazmum hai

ek yaadgar chahiye koi nishan rahe

KHamosh andheri raaton mein jab sari duniya suti hai

miT nahin sakta qayamat tak nishan-e-arzu

phir baDha josh-e-junun surat-e-sailab mujhe

bimar-e-gham ka koi mudawa na kijiye

pahli pahli wo mulaqat wo barsat ki raat

ji bhi kuchh aisa jalaya hai ki ji jaanta hai

irfan hai ye ishq ke soz-o-gudaz ka
