aish se kyun khush hue kyun gham se ghabraya kiye
zindagi kya jaane kya thi aur kya samjha kiye

nala-e-be-tab lab tak aate aate rah gaya
jaane kya sharmili nazron se wo farmaya kiye

ishq ki masumiyon ka ye bhi ek andaz tha
hum nigah-e-lutf-e-jaanan se bhi sharmaya kiye

nakhuda be-khud faza khamosh sakit mauj-e-ab
aur hum sahil se thodi dur par duba kiye

wo hawaen wo ghataen wo faza wo us ki yaad
hum bhi mizrab-e-alam se saz-e-dil chheda kiye

mukhtasar ye hai hamari dastan-e-zindagi
ek sukun-e-dil ki khatir umr bhar tadpa kiye

kat di yun hum ne 'jazbi' rah-e-manzil kat di
gir pade har gam par har gam par sambhla kiye
