dil-e-mukhlis kahe bin baat dil ki jaan jata hai
saliqe se manaen gar to rutha man jata hai

ye khamoshi na jaane aur kitne rang badlegi
ghulu ko dur se hi aadmi pahchan jata hai

bhale kitna hi pyara kyon na ho jaan se juda ho kar
turabi jism wapas be-sar-o-saman jata hai

badi mashghul rahti soch hai bismil meri aksar
hawa lagti hai to zakhmon ki jaanib dhyan jata hai

mohabbat hum ne ki hai tujh se jaanan aan par aa kar
tera yun chhod kar jaana khilaf-e-shan jata hai

bula kar dekh lo tum bhi kabhi 'abrar' fursat mein
badi mushkil se ghar aaya hua mehman jata hai
