aarzu-e-dil-e-nakaam se dar lagta hai
zindagani tere paigham se dar lagta hai

phir kisi jazba-e-gum-nam se dar lagta hai
husn-e-masum pe ilzam se dar lagta hai

shisha-e-dil pe koi thes na lagne pae
talkhi-e-mai se nahin jam se dar lagta hai

jis ko aaghaz-e-mohabbat ka nahin hai ehsas
bas use ishq ke anjam se dar lagta hai

waqt ke sath badal jati hain qadren hamdam
rah-e-pur-khar mein aaram se dar lagta hai

jis ne tufan-e-bala-khez ka munh tod diya
kyun use gardish-e-ayyam se dar lagta hai

dekh kar qasr-e-tamanna ki tabahi shayad
gulshan-e-dil ke dar-o-baam se dar lagta hai

mehr-e-taban ki qasam gesu-e-jaanan ki qasam
subh-e-nau tujh se nahin sham se dar lagta hai

sirf allah se darti hai 'aziz'-e-khasta
kya use talkhi-e-ayyam se dar lagta hai
