har taraf majma-e-ashiqan hai
tere dam ka ye sara saman hai

itna maghrur kyun baghban hai
ye chaman chaar din mein khizan hai

ishq mein be-khabar ho gaya hun
kis se puchhun mera dil kahan hai

kuchh nahin sujhti sair-e-gulshan
meri aankhon se wo gul nihan hai

dhyan aathon-pahar hai usi ka
main yahan hun mera dil wahan hai

sine par rakh ke sota hun us ko
us ki taswir aaram-e-jaan hai

aansu bahne lage dekhte hi
zulf-e-mahbub hai ya dhuan hai

jaan parwana hai us pari par
sham-e-sozan har ek ustukhwan hai

be-murawwat hai wo bewafa hai
sari mehnat meri raegan hai

kya tadapte guzarte hi apne
dard-e-dil mein hai lab par fughan hai

hijr mein kyun nahin maut aati
hae kya dagh-e-dil maraz-e-jaan hai

dhundhta hun main yusuf ko apne
khak mere pas-e-karwan hai

jam-e-mul hath mein wo baghal mein
'bahr' apni ye qismat kahan hai
