dil ke har zaKHm ko honTon pe sajaya jae

dil ke har zakhm ko honton pe sajaya jae
kya zaruri hai ki haal apna sunaya jae
aansuon mein teri surat ko sajaya jae
bahte pani pe bhi ek naqsh banaya jae


ab mujhe dekh ke kahte hain ye aaina-mizaj
ek shakhs aur tha shayad kahin paya jae
kis ke bas mein hai meri tarh salibon ka safar
apne har khwab ko suli pe chadhaya jae


aaj ki raat mulaqat ka jadu na sahi
aaj in aankhon mein nindon ko jagaya jae
dil ki aag aur badha dete hain bahte aansu
kya kare wo jise pani se jalaya jae


jurm sa jurm hai mera ki hun ek naqsh-e-wafa
dosto mujh ko abhi aur mitaya jae
us ke honton pe mere she'r ta'ajjub hai mujhe
mere afkar ko phulon mein basaya jae


'badr' achchha hai numaish na ho dagh-e-dil ki
apne ghar mein hi charagh apna jalaya jae
