kaun maslub hua husn ka kirdar ki hum
shohrat-e-ishq mein badnam hua yar ki hum

din ko tha kucha-e-dildar mein sayon ka hujum
raat aai to gae saya-e-diwar ki hum

ishq ke rabt se hai husn ka paikar taban
kat ke ab aap hue naqsh-ba-diwar ki hum

shor-e-tahsin se hain khalq ke chehre raushan
surkh-ru bazu-e-qatil hai ki talwar ki hum

kis ko khamosh mohabbat pe bharosa na raha
wo hain lafzon mein mohabbat ke talabgar ki hum
