hijr bakhsha kabhi visal diya
ishq ne jo diya kamal diya

ek khat jo sambhaalna tha mujhe
jaane main ne kahan sambhaal diya

shukr us ka karun ada kaise
jis ne hairat di aur sawal diya

meri qismat ka faisla us ne
maraz-e-iltawa mein dal diya

khud kiya faisla khilaf apne
mushkilon se use nikal diya

sab ko dil ki batata tha 'taimur'
main ne puchha to hans ke tal diya
