band hain dil ke dariche raushni madum hai

mujhko majbur-e-sar-kashi kahiye

chand-taron ka tere ru-ba-ru sajda karna

rafta rafta dil-e-be-tab Thahar jaega

kise bataun ki gham kya hai sarKHushi kya hai

pa-e-talab ki manzil ab tak wahi gali hai

ashk par gudaz-dil hashiya chaDhata hai

dil ne Thokar kha ke samjha hadisa kya chiz hai

talKHi-e-gham mere ehsas ka sarmaya hai

go dur ho chuka hun yaran-e-anjuman se

ehtimam-e-rang-o-bu se gulistan paida karen

fikr-e-besh-o-kam nahin unki raza ke samne

KHwab ka aks kahan KHwab ki tabir mein hai

kash us but ko bhi hum waqf-e-tamanna dekhen

taklif-e-iltifat-e-gurezan kabhi kabhi
