meri KHamoshiyon mein larzan hai

kab Thahrega dard ai dil kab raat basar hogi

jab tujhe yaad kar liya subh mahak mahak uThi

raat yun dil mein teri khoi hui yaad aai

fareb-e-arzu ki sahl-angari nahin jati

ai zulm ke mato lab kholo chup rahne walo chup kab tak

han nukta-waro lao lab-o-dil ki gawahi

in mein lahu jala ho hamara ki jaan o dil

agar sharar hai to bhaDke jo phul hai to khile

ek fursat-e-gunah mili wo bhi chaar din

jo nafas tha Khaar-e-gulu bana jo uThe the hath lahu hue

ek tarz-e-taghaful hai so wo un ko mubarak

hum sahal-talab kaun se farhad the lekin

sham-e-firaq ab na puchh aai aur aa ke Tal gai

aae kuchh abr kuchh sharab aae
