sher achchha ho to phir dad mila karti hai

zindagi pur-waqar chahta hun

zindagi ki saKHt rahon se guzar jaane ke baad

sirf itna qusur-war hun main

yaad jo tujhko kar rahe hain hum

KHub tum tohfa-e-ashiqi de gae

tera chehra jo mere dil mein utar aaya hai

be-hisi ki bhiD mein wo kho gaya

dar-ba-dar jaun ye kahan mumkin
