aankh tikti na thi chehre pe hasin aisa tha
dil ki duniya mein koi jalwa-nashin aisa tha

dastaras mein thi magar pa na saka wo mujh ko
dil mein ek umr se wo shakhs makin aisa tha

ahd-o-paiman se mukarne ka saliqa tha use
deta rahta tha dalilen wo zahin aisa tha

ab to banjar hua viran hua barbaad hua
khitta-e-dil kabhi shadab-zamin aisa tha

mujh ko jagir samajhta tha wo apni jaanan
main usi ki hun use mujh pe yaqin aisa tha
