ye ujala har ek shai ko chamka gaya
simTe to aise shams-o-qamar mein simaT gae
dil si virani mein saya koi mehman to hai
ghamon ne is tarah ghera kabhi nahin hoga
bahut pahunche to un ke kakul-o-ruKHsar tak pahunche
saz bane un ashkon se jo bahte hain tanhai mein
zaban pe KHud-baKHud arz-e-mohabbat aai jati hai
muddaton ye soch kar tanhai mein taDpa kiye
kise bataen mohabbat mein kya kiya maine
silsila jab teri baaton ka jawan hota hai
dilon ka haal wo be-etibar kya jaane
gulshan bhi sajae hain isne ye jhalka hai shamshir mein bhi
ye kya waswase ham-safar ho gae hain
ham-safar raaton ke sae ho gae
lambi thi umr mohabbat ki barbaad hue hote hote
