ab mera dard mari jaan hua jata hai

ek lamhe mein kaTa hai muddaton ka fasla

dil pe ai dost qayamat si guzar jati hai

rahne diya na usne kisi kaam ka mujhe

waqia kuchh bhi ho sach kahne mein ruswai hai

zamin naw meri baadban mere aflak

dasht mein kaisi diwaren

bas ek lamhe mein kya kuchh guzar gai dil par

aarzuon ne kai phul chune the lekin

bhul kar bhi koi leta nahin ab nam-e-wafa

pairahan chust hawa sust khaDi diwaren

falak se ghurti hain mujhko be-shumar aankhen

supurdagi ka wo lamha kabhi nahin guzra

shayad isi bais huin patthar meri aankhen
