husn ke ghamze bhi dekhe hain sitam dekhe hain
dil pe jo kuchh bhi hue hain wo karam dekhe hain

ahl-e-dil ne jinhen aasar-e-qayamat samjha
hum ne aankhon se wahi naqsh-e-qadam dekhe hain

apne hi pujne walon ko jo dete hain saza
mabad-e-ishq mein aise bhi sanam dekhe hain

tujh ko malum nahin gardish-e-dauran hum ne
baz-auqat qayamat ke qadam dekhe hain

un ki mastana-khirami ke jilau mein hum ne
aish dekhe hain kabhi aur kabhi gham dekhe hain

kya mohabbat ke haqaeq ka pata den tum ko
jazba-e-shauq se ubhre to alam dekhe hain

marzi-e-dost pe 'basit' jo mita den khud ko
aise jaanbaz zara hum ne bhi kam dekhe hain
