baat ki jab ishq ne tahzib ki
tere gham mein roz ek taqrib ki

zindagi ko nazm karne ke liye
main nai har harbe se ek tartib ki

chal pada phir silsila tamir ka
kuchh nahin bas thodi si takhrib ki

bhul jaana chahte the so use
yaad karne ki koi tarkib ki

pahle apne aap ko sachcha kaha
aur phir har baat ki takzib ki

sare qisse hain teri tamsil ke
sari baaten hain faqat tashbib ki

aankh bhi be-nur ho jati magar
dil ne us ke khwab ki targhib ki
