teri ulfat ko jaga rakkha hai

sham-e-gham se shab-e-andoh se chashm-e-tar se

uski aankhon mein haya aur ishaara bhi hai

shaffaf sath-e-ab ka manzar kahan gaya

dil mein kuchh hai bayan mein kuchh hai

qahqahe ki maut hai ya maut ki aawaz hai

ashk palkon pe jo aaen to chhupae na bane

baal-o-par rakhte nahin azm-e-safar rakhte hain

yaad to aae kai chehre har ek gam ke baad

naw TuTi hui biphra hua dariya dekha

sabhi to hain magar ab mehrban kahan hai koi

mera dil ajab shadmani mein gum hai
