ek bewafa ko dard ka darman bana liya
hum ne to aah kufr ko iman bana liya

dil ki khalish-pasandiyan hain ki allah ki panah
tir-e-nazar ko jaan-e-rag-e-jaan bana liya

mujh ko khabar nahin mere dil ko khabar nahin
kis ki nazar ne banda-e-ehsan bana liya

mahsus kar ke hum ne mohabbat ka har alam
khwab-e-subuk ko khwab-e-pareshan bana liya

dast-e-junun ki uqda-kushai to dekhiye
daman ko be-niyaz gareban bana liya

taskin-e-dil ki hum ne bhi parwah chhod di
har mauj-e-gham ko hasil-e-tufan bana liya

jab un ka nam aa gaya hum muztarib hue
aahon ko apni zist ka unwan bana liya

hum ne to apne dil mein wo gham ho ki ho alam
jo koi aa gaya use mehman bana liya

aaina dekhne ki zarurat na thi koi
apne ko khud hi aap ne hairan bana liya

ek be-wafa pe kar ke tasadduq dil-o-jigar
'bahzad' hum ne khud ko pareshan bana liya
