kisi se aur to kya guftugu karen dil ki
ki raat sun na sake hum bhi dhadkanen dil ki

magar ye baat khirad ki samajh mein aa na saki
visal-o-hijr se aage hain manzilen dil ki

jilau mein khwab-numa rat-jage sajae hue
kahan kahan liye phirti hain wahshaten dil ki

nigah milte hi rang-e-haya ki surat hain
chhalak uthin tere rukh se latafaten dil ki

nigah-e-kam bhi use sang se ziyaada hai
ki aaine se siwa hain nazakaten dil ki

dayar-e-harf-o-nawa mein koi to aisa ho
kabhi kisi se to hum baat kar saken dil ki

sar-e-jarida-e-hasti hamare baad 'umid'
lahu se kaun likhega ibaraten dil ki
