maqam-e-nur ho kar rah gaya hai
charagh-e-shauq jala raat ke asar se nikal
darun-e-jaan ka shagufa jala hua nikla
zamin ke hath mein hun aur na aasman ke hi
ye marhala hai mere aazmae jaane ka
charagh-e-shauq jala kar kahan se jaana tha
jo shaKHs rah banata raha daraKHton mein
wo mere hisab mein intiha nahin chahta
ek qatra-e-mani se afkar ka dariya ho
mujhe is KHwab ne ek arse tak be-tab rakkha hai
kahin rukne lagi hai kashti-e-umr-e-rawan shayad
naya paiman raushan kar gaya hai
makan nazdik hai ya la-makan nazdik paDta hai
hudud-e-jaan mein had-e-na-rasa se aaya hun
hamein usne sabhi ahwal se anjaan rakkha
