ai be-khabari ji ka ye kya haal hai kal se
rone mein maza hai na bahalta hai ghazal se

is shahr ki diwaron mein hai qaid mera gham
ye dasht ki pahnai mein hain yaadon ke jalse

baaton se siwa hoti hai kuchh wahshat-e-dil aur
ahbab pareshan hain mere tarz-e-amal se

tanhai ki ye sham udasi mein dhali hai
uthta hai dhuan phir mere khwabon ke mahal se

raaton ki hai taqdir tera chand sa chehra
nazron mein hai taswir tere nain kanwal se
