hujum-e-ham-nafsan chaara-e-alam na hua

hujum-e-ham-nafsan chaara-e-alam na hua
ki is tarah gham-e-tanha-rawi to kam na hua
na puchh dasht-e-talab mein mata-e-daman-e-zist
ye tar tar to hota raha pa nam na hua


likhi gai hain junun ki hikayaten kya kya
magar wo qissa-e-gham jo kabhi raqam na hua
mili na aabla-payan-e-shauq ko manzil
ki faslon ki tarah hausla bhi kam na hua


rah-e-talab mein hai aasuda-haal mauj-ba-jism
khuda khuda hi raha aur sanam sanam na hua
wo kaun hain ki hawas ras aa gai hai jinhen
yahan to ishq bhi chaara-gar-e-alam na hua


guman hua mujhe ehsan-e-na-shanasi ka
jo khud-bakhud koi aamada-e-sitam na hua
