gulshan-e-dil mein mile aql ke sahra mein mile
jo bhi milna hai mile aur isi duniya mein mile

barhami anjuman-e-shauq ki kya puchhte ho
dost bichhde hue akasr saf-e-ada mein mile

aane walon ne mere baad gawahi di hai
kai gulzar mere naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa mein mile

yun bhi guzri hai ki chhae rahe bedari par
nind aai to wo gham khwab ki duniya mein mile

nahin malum ki kya dekhne aae the udhar
be-ajar log bahut shahr-e-tamasha mein mile

phir umidon ne yahin gad diye hain kheme
rang kuchh udte hue daman-e-sahra mein mile

faslon se na mere shauq ki manzil napo
shash-jihat said mere dam-e-tamanna mein mile
