gulon mein rang bhare baad-e-nau-bahaar chale

himmat-e-iltija nahin baqi

kuchh pahle in aankhon aage kya kya na nazara guzre tha

yaad-e-ghazal-chashman zikr-e-saman-azaran

ye jafa-e-gham ka chaara wo najat-e-dil ka aalam

hairan hai jabin aaj kidhar sajda rawa hai

aap ki yaad aati rahi raat bhar

baat bas se nikal chali hai

kiye aarzu se paiman jo maal tak na pahunche

tujhe pukara hai be-irada

sitam sikhlaega rasm-e-wafa aise nahin hota

kabhi kabhi yaad mein ubharte hain naqsh-e-mazi miTe miTe se

ab ke baras dastur-e-sitam mein kya kya bab izad hue

shaKH par KHun-e-gul rawan hai wahi

kab yaad mein tera sath nahin kab hat mein tera hat nahin
