aah dekhi thi main jis ghar mein pari ki surat
ab nazar aae hai wan nauhagari ki surat

na wo andaz na aawaz na ishwa na ada
yak-ba-yak mit gai yun jalwagari ki surat

ab khayal us ka wahan aankhon mein phirta hai meri
koi phirta tha jahan kabk-e-dari ki surat

us ke jaane se mera dil hai mere sine mein
dam ka mehman charagh-e-sahari ki surat

ne khabar us ko meri pahunche hai ne us ki mujhe
bandh gai hai ajab ek be-khabari ki surat

nam lun kis ka ki ek gul ke liye jate hain
ashk aankhon se aqiq-e-jigari ki surat

'mushafi' hai yahi ab soch ki dekhen to falak
phir bhi dikhlaega yar-e-safari ki surat
