dekh kar har dar-o-diwar ko hairan hona
wo mera pahle-pahal dakhil-e-zindan hona

qabil-e-did hai us ghar ka bhi viran hona
jis ke har gosha mein makhfi tha bayaban hona

ji na utthunga hai bekar pasheman hona
jao ab ho chuka jo kuchh tha meri jaan hona

wahima mujh ko dikhata hai junun ke saman
nazar aata hai mujhe ghar ka bayaban hona

uf mere ujde hue ghar ki tabahi dekho
jis ke har zarre pe chhaya hai bayaban hona

hadse donon ye aalam mein aham guzre hain
hadse donon ye aalam mein aham guzre hain

mera marna teri zulfon ka pareshan hona
al-hazar gor-e-ghariban ki darauni raaten

aur wo un ke ghane baal pareshan hona
raat-bhar soz-e-mohabbat ne jalaya mujh ko

tha muqaddar mein charagh-e-shab-e-hijran hona
kyun na wahshat mein bhi paband-e-mohabbat rahta

tha bayaban mein mujhe qaidi-e-zindan hona
hoga ek waqt mein ye waqia-e-tarikhi

yaad rakhna mere kashane ka viran hona
kuchh na puchho shab-e-wada mere ghar ki raunaq

allah allah wo saman se saman hona
josh mein le ke ek angdai kisi ka kahna

tum ko aata hi nahin chaak-gareban hona
un ki us koshish-e-be-had ka pata deta hai

chaarasazon ka mere lash pe giryan hona
aalam-e-ishq ki fitrat mein khalal aata hai

man lun hazrat-e-naseh ka gar insan hona
surkh dori teri aankhon ki ilahi tauba

chahiye tha inhen paiwast-e-rag-e-jaan hona
ho chalen aap ke bimar ki aankhen be-nur

qahr tha subh ke tare ka numayan hona
main karun zabt idhar un ko pasina aae

chahiye yun gham-e-pinhan ko numayan hona
allah allah ye saliqa tera ai shoala-e-tur

kis tarah tu ne chhupaya hai numayan hona
un se karta hai dam-e-naza wasiyyat ye 'aziz'

khalq roegi magar tum na pareshan hona
