chandni mein saya-ha-e-kakh-o-ku mein ghumiye
phir kisi ko chahne ki aarzu mein ghumiye

shayad ek bhuli tamanna mitte mitte ji uthe
aur bhi is jalwa-zar-e-rang-o-bu mein ghumiye

ruh ke darbasta sannaton ko le kar apne sath
hamhamati mahfilon ki hao-hu mein ghumiye

kya khabar kis mod par mahjur yaaden aa milen
ghumti rahon pe gard-e-arzu mein ghumiye

zindagi ki rahaten milti nahin milti nahin
zindagi ka zahr pi kar justuju mein ghumiye

kunj-dauran ko nae ek zawiye se dekhiye
jin khalaon mein nirale chand ghumen ghumiye
