dil ki lagi mein ab jo sirhane laga hun main
muddat ke ba'd apne thikane laga hun main

diwangi ko dekh to kis intiha ki hai
tujh se nikal ke khud mein samane laga hun main

patthar ka but bana raha ek umr jaane kyon
tujh se mila to ashk bahane laga hun main

makhluq ka hai kaam hi jalti pe tel ka
apni lagi ko aap bujhane laga hun main

kuchh naqsh ban gae hain tere lafz jod kar
tujh ko tera khayal sunane laga hun main

ye sochna bhi kufr ki ilzam dun tujhe
apni jabin ka dagh mitane laga hun main

wo ba-kamal itna kahan tir-baz tha
ek hadisa tha us ke nishane laga hun main

karne laga hun khatm sabhi silsile 'niyaz'
bhatka hua tha laut kar aane laga hun main
