hath mein mahtab ho jaise
khuli aaankhon mein khwab ho jaise

mere ham-sae mein jo rahta hai
mujh sa khana-kharab ho jaise

chand nikla to is qarine se
ek hasin be-hijab ho jaise

ham-safar dhundne ko nikla hun
mausam-e-intikhab ho jaise

yun gunahon ki yaad aati hai
aaj yaum-e-hisab ho jaise

aankh muddat se tar nahin 'abid'
khushk apna chanab ho jaise
