aankh be-khwabi pe qurban dil nisar-e-intizar
aur hi hoga koi shikwa-guzar-e-intizar

kar diya hai kis ke jalwe ne shikar-e-intizar
main hun aur aathon pahar wo rahguzar-e-intizar

koi mujh se hashr ko milne ka wada kar gaya
ek qayamat ho gae lail-o-nahaar-e-intizar

jab kisi ka wada-e-farda mujhe yaad aa gaya
phir gai meri nazar mein rahguzar-e-intizar

ab bhi hai ye haal dekha jis taraf dekha kiya
meri hairani hai goya yaadgar-e-intizar

wo chale aate hain betabana mere pas kyon
allah-allah jazba-e-be-ikhtiyar-e-intizar

kis tarah wo bul-hawas ho wasl ka lazzat-shanas
jis ne luti ho na 'saib' kuchh bahaar-e-intizar
