jab meri samt hasin yaadon ke patthar barse
khair-maqdam ko chale ashk bhi chashm-e-tar se

yun koi shish-mahal kar gaya dil ka viran
jis tarah chal de koi ruth ke apne ghar se

dil mein yun zehn se dar aati hai yaad-e-mazi
ghar mein jis tarah se utre koi zine par se

dil ko izhaar-e-tamanna ki tamanna thi bahut
lab magar hil na sake ahl-e-jahan ke dar se

tark-e-ulfat ka koi radd-e-amal to dekhe
bolna chhod diya main ne zamane bhar se

dil mein muddat se mohabbat ki hai jhankar na gunj
lao is shishe ko takraen kisi patthar se

aaj tak mujh ko bulati hain sadaen us ki
jis ne lautaya tha ek din mujhe apne dar se

ye mohabbat ki saza jaan hi le le na 'zafar'
hum to ek umr se surat ko bhi us ki tarse
