josh ubalta hai pighalti hai tamanna dil mein
aag hi aag hai is soz-sarapa dil mein

tera jalwa hai ki rangin sa dhoka dil mein
kabhi zulmat kabhi paida hai ujala dil mein

ab nahin tere do-alam ki zarurat mujh ko
ishq ne tere basa di nai duniya dil mein

apni aankhen to utha mahw-shuda jalwe bhi
nazar aaenge tujhe anjuman-ara dil mein

naz tha un ko ki har qaid se aazad hain wo
main ne kar hi liya paband-e-tamanna dil mein

phunkta rahta hai kaunain ko jin ka partaw
be-zarar hai unhin jalwon ka tamasha dil mein

aap hi baada hun main aap hi saqi 'makhmur'
saghar aankhon mein meri aur hai mina dil mein
