dil ne jab bhi tera khayal kiya
khud ko aaina-e-jamal kiya

dil ki dhadkan mein bas gaya aise
sans lena mera muhaal kiya

main ne sach bolne ki jurat ki
sach suna aap ne kamal kiya

teri yaaden meri muhafiz hain
teri yaadon ko main ne dhaal kiya

teri chahat ke lamhe lamhe ko
dil ne manind-e-mah-o-sal kiya

waqt ne kab use rakha zinda
kaam jis ne jo be-maal kiya

teri qurbat mein bite lamhon ne
mujh ko bhi sahab-e-jamal kiya

aaine ne tera qasida kaha
aaina jab kabhi misal kiya

ek hi tha jawab husn ke pas
husn se jis ne bhi sawal kiya

zindagi ka hai saneha 'rumi'
dil ki tanhai ne nidhaal kiya
