aish-e-rafta ka yahi hai wo shabistan ai dost
yahin khwabida thi aaram-e-dil-o-jaan ai dost

be-khabar sone mein wo jism khula shanon tak
jaise jannat ka na ho koi nigahban ai dost

saz hathon mein uthaya teri angdai ne
chudiyan pahlu badalte hi ghazal-khwan ai dost

pesh-e-aina masahri pe khule gesu-e-naz
dur baadal mein koi hur-e-pareshan ai dost

mukhtalif waza tere husn ko malbus ne di
shauq ke main ne tarashe kai unwan ai dost

rokna ghar tujhe jaane se ba-khauf-e-hijran
jaguzin dil mein tere yaad azizan ai dost

jo umangon ko udasi ke hawale kar de
aah wo tund-mizaji-e-buzrugan ai dost

naqsh hai waqt ki peshani pe ahd-e-rangin
hum se go ruk na saki umr-e-gurezan ai dost
