dil-e-betab ka andaz-e-bayan hai warna

ishq mein wo bhi ek waqt hai jab

nazar jis ki taraf kar ke nigahen pher lete ho

tu ne pheri lakh narmi se nazar

KHuda jaane dua thi ya shikayat lab pe bismil ke

ishq karta hai to phir ishq ki tauhin na kar

sar-e-mahshar yahi puchhunga KHuda se pahle

gham-e-hayat sharik-e-gham-e-mohabbat hai

kahne ko lafz do hain ummid aur hasrat

husn ke jalwe nahin muhtaj-e-chashm-e-arzu

ek ek lamhe mein jab sadiyon ki sadiyan kaT gain

ab ban ke falak-zad dikhate hain hamein aankh

aql ke bhaTke houn ko rah dikhlate hue

shama ek mom ke paikar ke siwa kuchh bhi na thi

humne bhi ki thin koshishen hum na tumhein bhula sake
