teri yaad mein jalsa-e-taziyat

zindagi ki rahaten milti nahin milti nahin

chandni mein saya-ha-e-kaKH-o-ku mein ghumiye

masih-o-KHizr ki umren nisar hon us par

har waqt fikr-e-marg-e-gharibana chahiye

kya rup dosti ka kya rang dushmani ka

is jalti dhup mein ye ghane saya-dar peD

shayad ek bhuli tamanna miTte miTte ji uThe

hae wo zindagi-fareb aankhen

meri manind KHud-nigar tanha

main roz idhar se guzarta hun kaun dekhta hai

main ek pal ke ranj-e-farawan mein kho gaya

nigah uThi to zamane ke samne tera rup

supurdagi mein bhi ek ramz-e-KHud-nigah-dari

ye kya tilism hai ye kis ki yasmin banhen
