isi sabab nahin khulti meri zaban logo
na sun sakoge kabhi dil ki dastan logo

wo kaun hai jise dil se laga ke pyar karen
shuur-e-zauq-e-mohabbat raha kahan logo

tumhaare rahbar-e-manzil qarib hi honge
zara talash karo apne darmiyan logo

ab apne apne nasheman ka hai khuda-hafiz
chamak rahi hain zamane mein bijliyan logo

chalo ki dasht mein kanton se dil ko bahla len
maqam-e-amn nahin sehn-e-gulistan logo

hamesha rahzan-o-rahbar ke farq ko jaano
wagarna koshish-e-manzil hai raegan logo

mere junun-e-mohabbat ki dastanen hain
ye chand chaak-e-gareban ki dhajjiyan logo

asir-e-dard giraftar-e-gham magar fankar
tumhaare shahr mein hai 'taj' naghma-khwan logo
