bagule qais se kahte to honge laut ja pyare
nahin lekin kisi ki mante ye ishq ke mare

sabab mere mere raste mein hail har rukawat thi
mere hatte hi manzil se ye raste ja mile sare

palat kar yun nahin dekha mabaada sirf malba ho
meri yaadon mein zinda hain wo ghar wo dar wo chaubare

kisi ka raj khwabon par kisi ka nind par pahra
kiye kuchh is tarah hamdam teri yaadon ne batware

bhala lagta hai mujh ko mujh sa banjar aasman din bhar
magar phir us pe khul jate hain phulon se hasin tare

kisi guzre hue kal ki tarah mahsus hota hai
naya kya hai bata is aaj mein aankhen ki nazzare
