sab pech-o-tab-e-shauq ke tufan tham gae
wo zulf khul gai to hawaon ke kham gae

sari faza thi wadi-e-majnun ki khwab-nak
jo rushanas-e-marg-e-mohabbat the kam gae

wahshat si ek lala-e-khunin kafan se thi
ab ke bahaar aai to samjho ki hum gae

ab jin ke gham ka tera tabassum hai parda-dar
aakhir wo kaun the ki ba-mizhgan-e-nam gae

ai jada-e-khiram-e-mah-o-mahr dekhna
teri taraf bhi aaj hawa ke qadam gae

main aur tere band-e-qaba ki hadis-e-ishq
na-dida khwab-e-ishq kai be-raqam gae

aisi koi khabar to nahin sakinan-e-shahr
dariya mohabbaton ke jo bahte the tham gae
