meri manind KHud-nigar tanha

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

shayad ek bhuli tamanna miTte miTte ji uThe

kya rup dosti ka kya rang dushmani ka

masih-o-KHizr ki umren nisar hon us par

ye kya tilism hai ye kis ki yasmin banhen

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

is jalti dhup mein ye ghane saya-dar peD

nigah uThi to zamane ke samne tera rup

jab anjuman tawajjoh-e-sad-guftugu mein ho

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

tere KHayal ke pahlu se uTh ke jab dekha

hae wo zindagi-fareb aankhen

main roz idhar se guzarta hun kaun dekhta hai

baDe saliqe se duniya ne mere dil ko diye
