dil se dil ke waste paigham kaise aa gaya
mere honton par tumhaara nam kaise aa gaya

un ki mahfil mein hamara nam kaise aa gaya
aaj zikr-e-gardish-e-ayyam kaise aa gaya

dil si shai ne kaise rasm-e-arzu kar li qubul
tair-e-aflak zer-e-dam kaise aa gaya

log kahte hain masarrat zindagi ka nam hai
phir ye mujh par zist ka ilzam kaise aa gaya

ishrat-e-ahd-e-guzashta kis tarah yaad aa gai
hath mein aaina-e-ayyam kaise aa gaya

shisha-e-dil bas-ki nazuk ishq ki mai tund-o-tez
tum pe ilzam-e-shikast-e-jam kaise aa gaya

fikr ke baadal jabin-e-husn par 'ehsas' kyun
ye sahar ke waqt zikr-e-sham kaise aa gaya
