bhulaun lakh main aata hai lekin yaad rah rah kar
wo aana mausam-e-gul ka wo jaana mera gulshan se

nashat-o-aish hasil tha chaman ke rahne wale the
ye kya malum tha nisbat qafas ko bhi hai gulshan se

azab-e-jaan qafas ki tangiyan phir us pe ye turra
hawaon par hawaen aa rahi hain sehn-e-gulshan se

yahi to hasil-e-hasti hai tum par mitne wale ka
juda kyun khak-e-daman-gir ko karte ho daman se

wahi 'arshad' tumhaara hun jise kandhon pe lae the
guzarne walo bach bach kar na niklo mere madfan se
