is qadar kin jazba-e-ulfat ki parda-poshiyan
das rahi hain aaj khud mujh ko meri khamoshiyan

kaun se sahra ke kante bichh gae hain rah mein
kaun si manzil pe aa kar lut gain gul-poshiyan

kya hua wo soz-e-furqat aur surur-e-intizar
dil se teri yaad ki din raat ham-aghoshiyan

har ek aahat par tere aane ka hota tha guman
khak mein sab mil gain hain wo hama-tan-goshiyan

phiki phiki ho gai hai ab teri tahrir bhi
ranjish-e-paiham ne teri chhin lin mai-noshiyan

bad-gumani ki hawa se gul na ho sham-e-wafa
zehn-o-dil mein ho rahi hain aaj ye sargoshiyan

umr bhar ka gham bani hai 'nur' wo pal ki khushi
hosh ke aalam mein bhi chhane lagin be-hoshiyan
