ek murgh-e-chaman waqt-e-sahar bol raha hai

ek murgh-e-chaman waqt-e-sahar bol raha hai
sayyaad ka har raaz-e-nihan khol raha hai
jazbaat ki lahron pe tarannum ke ye naghme
ye kaun hai kanon mein jo ras ghol raha hai


haq baat ki azmat ka to qail hai zamana
sachchai ka moti bahut anmol raha hai
kyon raaz tere dil ka hua jata hai ifsha
jadu hai jo sar chadh ke tere bol raha hai


har baat kasauti pe jo rakhta hai zamana
har harf tamanna ka teri tol raha hai
jab sar se kafan bandh ke tu ghar se chala hai
kyon azm tera waqt-e-safar dol raha hai


kahte hain 'jamil' aap ko begana-e-hasti
ye raaz sar-e-bazm koi khol raha hai
