chaman chaman hi nahin hai jo lala-zar nahin
qasid nahin ye waqt sawal-o-jawab ka
kahan kahan teri rangini-e-shabab nahin
aao to bahal jae mera dil-e-diwana
unki surat nazar nahin aati
ishq ki itni baDhin ranaiyan
bura kahne se mujhko muddaa kya
muqaddar apna bargashta muKhaalif aasman apna
baiTh kar pas na arman-bhara dil dekha
ruKH nazar ka kabhi idhar na hua
jab dil ki KHalish baDh jati hai majbur jab insan hota hai
gham-e-dost ko aasaish-e-duniya se gharaz kya
gulshan mein junun ka mujhe saman nazar aaya
ek kafir se mohabbat ho gai
har nazar aashna nahin hoti
