jab teri zat ko phaila hua dariya samjhun
khud ko bhigi hui raaton mein akela samjhun

nam likkhun main tera dur khalaon mein kahin
aur har lafz ko phir chand se pyara samjhun

yaad ki jhil mein jab aks nazar aae tera
aankh se ashk bhi tapke to sitara samjhun

dastaken deta raha raat jo galiyon mein use
zehn aawara kahun nind ka mara samjhun

wo jo aa jaen mere pas to un ko 'farhat'
dukh ki badhti hui baraat ka dulha samjhun
