mere wajud ke aangan mein khwab raushan tha
sawad-e-hijr mein taza gulab raushan tha

kali kali ki zaban par azab raushan tha
ai ham-safar dil-e-khana-kharab raushan tha

ye kis hisab mein jheli hai main ne dar-ba-dari
tere sawal-e-badan par jawab raushan tha

main apni aag se khela main apne aap jala
hisar-e-lams mein utra sahab raushan tha

tu rat-jagon ki masafat mein gum hua 'khurshid'
ek aaftab pas-e-aftab raushan tha
