jab bhi teri yaadon ki chalne lagi purwai
har zakhm hua taza har chot ubhar aai

is baat pe hairan hain sahil ke tamashai
ek tuti hui kashti har mauj se takrai

maikhane tak aa pahunchi insaf ki ruswai
saqi se hui laghzish rindon ne saza pai

hangama hua barpa ek jam agar tuta
dil tut gae lakhon aawaz nahin aai

ek raat basar kar len aaram se diwane
aisa bhi koi wada ai jaan-e-shakebai

kis darja sitam-gar hai ye gardish-e-dauran bhi
khud aaj tamasha hain kal the jo tamashai

kya jaaniye kya gham tha mil kar bhi ye aalam tha
be-khwab rahe wo bhi hum ko bhi na nind aai
