kucha-e-ishq se kuchh khwab utha kar le aae
the gada tohfa-e-nayab utha kar le aae

kaun si kashti mein baithen tere bande maula
ab jo duniya koi sailab utha kar le aae

hae wo log gae chand se milne aur phir
apne hi tute hue khwab utha kar le aae

aisa ziddi tha mera ishq na bahla phir bhi
log sach-much kai mahtab utha kar le aae

sath-e-sahil na rahi jab koi qimat in ki
hum khazanon ko tah-e-ab utha kar le aae

jab mila husn bhi harjai to us bazm se hum
ishq-e-awara ko betab utha kar le aae

is ko kam-zarfi-e-rindan-e-girami kahiye
nashe chhod aae mai-e-nab utha kar le aae

anjuman-sazi-e-arbab-e-hunar kya kahiye
un ko wo aur unhen ahbab utha kar le aae

hum wo shair hamein likhne lage jab log to hum
guftugu ke nae aadab utha kar le aae

khwab mein lazzat-e-yak-khwab hai duniya meri
aur mere falsafi asbab utha kar le aae
