jaane kya soch ke us ne sitam ijad kiya
khud bhi barbaad hua mujh ko bhi barbaad kiya

shama ki tarah jale hum teri mahfil mein magar
tu ne kis waqt hamein kaun si shab yaad kiya

jumbish-e-lab ki ijazat hai na izn-e-parwaz
kis liye tu ne mujhe qaid se aazad kiya

shukr hai tu ne mujhe dard ke qabil samjha
teri paiman-shikani ne mera dil shad kiya

hae us shakhs ki khatir-shikani hoti hai
jis ne apne ko teri yaad mein barbaad kiya

apni barbaadi pe nazan bhi hun hairan bhi hun
shamen raushan huin jab main ne tujhe yaad kiya

tujh ko ye naz ki to khaliq-e-naghma hai 'khayal'
mujh ko ye fakhr ki tu ne mujhe barbaad kiya
