aap ke izn-e-mulaqat se ji darta hai
apne badle hue haalat se ji darta hai

aap tajdid-e-mohabbat ka na dije paigham
aap ki chashm-e-inayat se ji darta hai

kal ye aalam tha ki har baat pe hans dete the
ab ye aalam hai ki har baat se ji darta hai

ham-nashino zara kuchh der mere sath raho
aaj tanhai ke lamhat se ji darta hai

dil mein jab sozish-e-gham aag laga deti hai
chashm-e-afsurda ki barsat se ji darta hai

chahta hun ki ye dil shahr-e-nigaran ho magar
itni rangini-e-jazbaat se ji darta hai

zakhm kuchh aur sulag jate hain dal ke 'shahid'
ab to is taron bhari raat se ji darta hai
