ajib wo sail tha ki jis ne
kanar-e-dariya ki sarhadon mein nae izafe kiye hain taza zamin

aabaad kar gaya hai
ajib wo dhup thi jo pesh-az-sahar ki saat ke ghar mein utri

to jaise soe hue labon par
nishan-e-ulfat laga gai hai

ajib lamha tha jis ne sar par chamakte suraj ke garm raste pe
pa-barahna safar kiya hai

wo dhup tere jamal ki thi
wo sail mere khayal ka tha

wo lamha tere visal ka tha
