kaTa na koh-e-alam humse kohkan ki tarah

samand-e-shauq pe KHat us ka taziyana hua

hamare haal se koi jo ba-KHabar rahta

kuchh is ada se wo mere dil-o-nazar mein raha

KHud apni yaad dila ke rula diya hai mujhe

dil mein yun chah ka arman na hua tha so hua

KHabar nahin ki safar hai ki hai qayam abhi

raat aangan mein chand utra tha

kabhi sukun to kabhi iztirab jaisa hai

hum ko malum hai baaton ki sadaqat teri

dekha jo ek shaKHs ajab aan-ban ka

tu KHush-nasib hai har shaKHs hai asiron mein

main ki KHud apne KHayalat ka zindani hun

wo nahin jaanta hai jab kuchh bhi

kis darja mere shahar ki dilkash hai faza bhi
