yun tumhaare na-tawan-e-shauq manzil bhar chale
khai thokar gir pade gir kar uthe uth kar chale

chhod kar bimar ko ye kya qayamat kar chale
dam nikalne bhi na paya aap apne ghar chale

ho gaya sayyaad barham ai asiran-e-qafas
band ab ye nala-o-fariyaad warna par chale

kis tarah tai ki hai manzil ishq ki hum ne na puchh
thak gae jab panw tera nam le le kar chale

aa rahe hain ashk aankhon mein ab ai saqi na chhed
bas chhalakne ki kasar baqi hai saghar bhar chale

jab bhi khali hath the aur ab bhi khali hath hain
le ke hum duniya mein kya aae the kya le kar chale

husn ko ghamgin dekhe ishq ye mumkin nahin
rok le ai shama aansu ab patinge mar chale

is taraf bhi ek nazar hum bhi khade hain der se
mangne wale tumhaare dar se jholi bhar chale

ai 'qamar' shab khatm hone ko hai chhodo intizar
sahil-e-shab se sitare bhi kinara kar chale
