shahr-e-junun mein kal talak jo bhi tha sab badal gaya
marne ki khu nahin rahi jine ka dhab badal gaya

pal mein hawa mita gai sare nuqush nur ke
dekha zara si der mein manzar-e-shab badal gaya

meri purani arz par ghaur kiya na jaega
yun hai ki us ki bazm mein tarz-e-talab badal gaya

saat-e-khub wasl ki aani thi aa nahin saki
wo bhi to wo nahin raha main bhi to ab badal gaya

duri ki dastan mein ye bhi kahin pe darj ho
tishna-labi to hai wahi chashma-e-lab badal gaya

mere siwa har ek se duniya ye puchhti rahi
mujh sa jo ek shakhs tha patthar mein kab badal gaya
