wo sitam-parwar ba-chashm ashk-bar aa hi gaya
chaak-damani pe meri us ko pyar aa hi gaya

mitte mitte mit gai jaan-e-wafa ki aarzu
aate aate be-qarari ko qarar aa hi gaya

chupke chupke mujh pe meri khamushi hansti rahi
rote rote jazb-e-dil par ikhtiyar aa hi gaya

koi wada jis ka mani-ashna hota nahin
phir usi wada-shikan par e'tibar aa hi gaya

ya ilahi jazba-e-hosh-o-khirad ki khair ho
muntazir jis ka junun tha wo dayar aa hi gaya
