kaise kaise mile din ko sae hamein

saya jis ka nazar aata hai mujhe

KHayal-e-zehn-shikan se zaban bhar aa jae

umr bhar jis pe takiya raha kuchh na tha dil nahin manta

be-tahi yahi hogi ye jahan kahin honge

mahrumiyon ka ek sabab josh-e-talab KHud bhi to hai

andar to KHayalon ke ho aae KHayal apna

naqqad apne aap ka be-lag aisa kaun hai

KHirad yaqin ke sukun-zar ki talash mein hai

shola-e-shauq ki aaghosh mein kyunkar aaun

ab yahan koi nahin pahle yahan tha koi

apni aag mein bhunti jae bunti jae kafan apna

jo zaKHmon se apne bahalte rahenge

mujhko talab to nai duniya ki hai

kuchh na hone ki haqiqat nahin jaani yani
