jo hamare safar ka qissa hai

us ka wada ta-qayamat kam se kam

ghaaliban mere alawa koi guzra bhi nahin

usko bhi humse mohabbat ho zaruri to nahin

hujum-e-gham hai qalb gham-zada hai

ujala kar ke zulmat mein ghira hun

ajal hoti rahegi ishq kar ke multawi kab tak

hai jo darwesh wo sultan hai ye malum hua

kasrat-e-jalwa ko aaina-e-wahdat samjho

uljhanon mein kaise itminan-e-dil paida karen

is rang mein apne dil-e-nadan se gila hai

jo dekhiye to karam ishq par zara bhi nahin

manzil pe pahunchne ka mujhe shauq hua tez

jawani zindagani hai na tum samjhe na hum samjhe

aaina ban jaiye jalwa-asar ho jaiye
