dasht-e-junun mein aabla-pa le gaya mujhe
meri mohabbaton ka sila le gaya mujhe

viran is nazar ne kiya mujh ko aur phir
tanhaiyon ka dasht baha le gaya mujhe

yan bhi wahi zamin wahi aasman mila
main sochta raha ki wo kya le gaya mujhe

ek bar bhi wo mujh se mukhatab nahin hua
us ke qarib ye hi gila le gaya mujhe

wo kya mila na dhyan raha baadban ka
girdab mein safina mera le gaya mujhe

gar wo nazar-shanas nahin tha to kis tarah
dekha unhen unhi ko suna le gaya mujhe

kashti bhanwar mein un ki nigahon mein bebasi
'manzar' yahi to ab ke utha le gaya mujhe
