begana-e-qayud-e-bahaar-o-khizan rahe
yarab mera junun-e-mohabbat jawan rahe

ye bhi samajh saki hai na ab tak nigah-e-shauq
tum ne kahan fareb diya aur kahan rahe

duniya mein chaak-dil ko nahin puchhta koi
kya jaane kitne ahl-e-junun be-nishan rahe

us anjuman mein hum bhi pahunch to gae magar
jab tak rahe mizaj-e-nazar par garan rahe

kya kya jafaen ki hain har ek aarzu ke sath
aur is tarah ki un pe wafa ka guman rahe

ab yun karam na kar ki ba-in wasf-e-husn-o-naz
shayad tujhe bhi ishq ka sauda garan rahe

lene de apna nam bhi mujh ko ki mere baad
tu bhi meri ghazal ke sabab jawedan rahe
