aap jab bhī kabhī muskurāne lage
dard jitne the mere suhāne lage
raat puurī khaḌī hai abhī sahn meñ
taare mujh ko abhī se jagāne lage
ḳhvāb jalte hue rakh diye raah par
be-sahārā the vo sab Thikāne lage
is qadar jaan ko ho rahā thā malāl
aap rūThe nahīñ ham manāne lage
ab ke shāyad vo aa.egā is shahr meñ
baam par ham diye to jalāne lage
bah gayā aañkh se merā kājal to phir
ranj-o-ġham dil ke sab hī chhupāne lage
is qadar mehrbāñ vo kahāñ mujh pe the
jis qadar vo mujhe ab jatāne lage
