din mein suraj hai meri mahrumiyon ka tarjuman
zulmat-e-shab mein sitare hijr o gham ke raaz-dan

chand suraj hain parae ajnabi hai kahkashan
hum faqiron ke liye farsh-e-zamin hai aasman

jalwa-e-mashuq bhi hai ek karishma al-aman
sat pardon mein nihan ho kar bhi har jaanib ayan

manzil-e-girya kahan hai chashm-e-tar ko kya khabar
ta-abad bhatega mere aansuon ka karwan

dil ko jaana tha gaya ek faltu si chiz tha
sina-e-ashiq mein yaro dil ki gunjaish kahan

bas yahi ek kaam baqi tha jo karna hai mujhe
main mohabbat bo raha hun nafraton ke darmiyan

ye fasana ishq ka yani khazana pyar ka
sath hai tishna azal se dastan-dar-dastan
