ishq-e-butan ka le ke sahaara kabhi kabhi
apne khuda ko hum ne pukara kabhi kabhi

aasuda-e-khatir hi nahin matmah-e-wafa
gham bhi kiya hai hum ne gawara kabhi kabhi

is intiha-e-tark-e-mohabbat ke bawajud
hum ne liya hai nam tumhaara kabhi kabhi

tufan ka khauf hai abhi shayad karishma-kar
aata hai samne jo kinara kabhi kabhi

tanha-rawi ne rakkhi hamare junun ki laj
go ahl-e-karwan ne pukara kabhi kabhi

ab kya kahen dil-e-mutalawwin-mizaj ko
aksar ye aap ka hai hamara kabhi kabhi

paiham sitam se ishq ki taskin ho na jae
ai dost iltifat khuda-ra kabhi kabhi

fariyaad-e-gham se 'arsh' sambhalta hai dil magar
lete hain ahl-e-dil ye sahaara kabhi kabhi
