ġhaib se paiġhām jaarī ho gayā
mujh pe us kā rañg taarī ho gayā
muntazir rahne lagā dil is qadar
lamha lamha intizārī ho gayā
ek shab vo ḳhvāb meñ aayā mire
dil mirā us kā pujārī ho gayā
kuchh nasha to thā visāl-e-yār meñ
umr-bhar kī jo ḳhumārī ho gayā
jaan kī baazī lagā baiThā hai phir
phir koī āshiq juārī ho gayā
