aaya nahin wo jaur ka khugar tamam raat
tadpa kiya mera dil-e-muztar tamam raat

nind us ke husn-e-rukh ke tasawwur mein aai thi
dekha hai barq-e-tur ka manzar tamam raat

ye raaz mujh pe shama ke anjam se khula
katti hai hijr-e-yar mein kyunkar tamam raat

ai ham-nafas na puchh shab-e-hijr ka azab
aankhon mein katni padi akasr tamam raat

ek hum na un ki yaad mein jhapka sake palak
ek wo ki mahw-e-baada-o-saghar tamam raat

waqt-e-sahar ye jaana ki jage hain hum magar
sota raha hamara muqaddar tamam raat

sincha hai aansuon se bahut nakhl-e-arzu
lekin samar na aa saka 'jauhar' tamam raat
