tere farq-e-naz pe taj hai mere dosh-e-gham pe galim hai
teri dastan bhi azim hai meri dastan bhi azim hai

meri kitni sochti subhon ko ye khayal zahr pila gaya
kisi tapte lamhe ki aah hai ki khiram-e-mauj-e-nasim hai

tah-e-khak kirmak-e-dana jo bhi sharik-e-raqs-e-hayat hai
na bas ek jalwa-e-tur hai na bas ek shauq-e-kalim hai

ye har ek samt masafaton mein gundhi padi hain jo saaten
teri zindagi meri zindagi inhi mausamon ki shamim hai

kahin mahmalon ka ghubar ude kahin manzilon ke diye jalen
kham-e-asman rah-e-karwan na maqam hai na muqim hai

haram aur dair fasana hai yahi jalti sans zamana hai
yahi gosha-e-dil-e-na-subur hi kunj-e-bagh-e-naim hai
