ab dard ka suraj kabhi dhalta hi nahin hai
ab dil koi pahlu ho sambhalta hi nahin hai

bechain kiye rahti hai jis ki talab-e-did
ab baam pe wo chand nikalta hi nahin hai

ek umr se duniya ka hai bas ek hi aalam
ye kya ki falak rang badalta hi nahin hai

nakaam raha un ki nigahon ka fusun bhi
is waqt to jadu koi chalta hi nahin hai

jazbe ki kadi dhup ho to kya nahin mumkin
ye kis ne kaha sang pighalta hi nahin hai
