hae dam bhar bhi dil thahar na saka
hath sine pe koi dhar na saka

aaina kis se dekha jata hai
rashk ke mare wo sanwar na saka

rah gaya aankh mein nazakat se
dil mein naqsha tera utar na saka

is jahan se guzar gae lakhon
us gali se koi guzar na saka

mai-kashi se najat mushkil hai
mai ka duba kabhi ubhar na saka

mera nama khat-e-muqaddar tha
ki nazar se teri guzar na saka

jo tere ishq mein tabah hua
koi us ko tabah kar na saka

aag aisi lagi thi sine mein
aankh se dil mein wo utar na saka

mausam-e-gul mein bhi 'jalil' afsos
daman apna gulon se bhar na saka
