na kam hua hai na ho soz-e-iztirab-e-durun
tere qarib rahun main ki tujh se dur rahun

kahin koi tera mahram hai ai dil-e-mahzun
mujhe bata ki kidhar jaun kis se baat karun

teri nazar ne bahut kuchh sikha diya dil ko
kuchh itna sahl na tha warna karobar-e-junun

pukarti hain mujhe wusaten do-alam ki
main apne aap se daman chhuda sakun to chalun

teri wafa na mujhe ras aa saki lekin
main sochta hun tujhe kaise bewafa kah dun

meri shikasta-dili ka na kar khayal itna
kahin na main tere khwabon mein talkhiyan bhar dun

giraft-e-asr-e-rawan is qadar to mohlat de
ki mit rahi hai jo duniya use main dekh to lun

ye kis khayal ne ki hai meri zaban-bandi
tujhi se kahne ki baaten tujhi se kah na sakun

wo iztirab-talab tha kisi tawaqqo par
ab uth chuki hai tawaqqo ab aa chala hai sukun
