jab wo nazren do-chaar hoti hain
tir si dil ke par hoti hain

ranjishen meri aur us gul ki
raat din mein hazar hoti hain

ishq mein be-hijabiyan dil ko
kya hi be-ikhtiyar hoti hain

tu jo jata hai bagh mein ai gul
bulbulen sab nisar hoti hain

qumriyan bandagi mein tujh qad ki
sar-ba-sar tauq-e-dar hoti hain

'aftab' us ke wasl ki baaten
bais-e-iztirar hoti hain
