tere firaq ke lamhe shumar karte hue
bikhar gae hain tera intizar karte hue

tumhein khabar hi nahin hai ki koi tut gaya
mohabbaton ko bahut paedar karte hue

main muskuraata hua aaine mein ubharunga
wo ro padegi achanak singhaar karte hue

wo kah rahi thi samundar nahin hain aankhen hain
main un mein dub gaya e'tibar karte hue

bhanwar jo mujh mein pade hain wo main hi jaanta hun
tumhaare hijr ke dariya ko par karte hue
