chaman mein rah ke bhi dil ko agar qarar nahin
to ye bahaar ki tauhin hai bahaar nahin

tumhaara husn jo phulon se aashkar nahin
meri nigah bhi sharminda-e-bahaar nahin

huzur aap ke wadon ka kya yaqin aae
yahan to zist pe bhi apni eatibar nahin

hai zindagi meri ek hadisa jahan ke liye
meri tabahi pe kaun aaj ashk-bar nahin

wo aankh kya ki mohabbat mein khun baha na sake
wo dil hi kya hai jo zakhmon se lala-zar nahin

koi hazar sarapa khulus ban jae
hamein kisi ka bhi 'anjum' ab eatibar nahin
