harf-e-ehsas ki tashkil kahan mumkin hai
mere jazbaat ki tarsil kahan mumkin hai

pahle ek arz-e-tamanna ye bichhe jate hain
ab mere hukm ki tamil kahan mumkin hai

tere hote hue mahfil mein charaghan kyon kar
mahr-e-taban ko ye qindil kahan mumkin hai

yaad-e-rafta ka khazana mujhe bhaari hai bahut
hafize ki nai zambil kahan mumkin hai

shaz-o-nadir hi tamannaen jawan hoti hain
har ghadi nafs ki tahlil kahan mumkin hai

sochti rahti hain shab bhar wo sitara aankhen
khwab-e-girya ki wo takmil kahan mumkin hai
