be-wajh na badle the musawwir ne irade

wo aaina hai to hairat kisi jamal ki ho

KHush-arzani hui hai is qadar bazar-e-hasti mein

ye KHayal tha kabhi KHwab mein tujhe dekhte

uTha uTha ke tere naz ai gham-e-duniya

kinara kar na ai duniya meri hast-e-zabuni se

khol dete hain palaT aane pe darwaza-e-dil

tere KHayal ki lau hi safar mein kaam aai

ajab nahin dar-o-diwar jaise ho jaen

koi kab diwar bana hai mere safar mein

jamal mujh pe ye ek din mein to nahin aaya

abhi to mansab-e-hasti se main haTa hi nahin

raat ro ro ke gizari hai charaghon ki tarah

ye virani si yunhi to nahin rahti hai aankhon mein

zamin itni nahin hai ki panw rakh paen
