kabhi yahan liye hue kabhi wahan liye hue

kabhi yahan liye hue kabhi wahan liye hue
phiri hai justuju teri kahan kahan liye hue
zamin-e-dil ki khak hai sad-asman liye hue
tanazzulat-e-ishq mein taraqqiyan liye hue


dil o jigar liye hue mata-e-jaan liye hue
kisi ka nawak-e-nazar talashiyan liye hue
usi gali se aai hai shamim-e-zulf lai hai
nasim-e-subh aai hai tasalliyan liye hue


mere gham-e-nihan mein hai nawed-e-ishrat-afrin
bahaar hi bahaar hai meri khizan liye hue
hamari aah ke sharar hamin ko phunkne lage
hawa ke jhonke aae sath bijliyan liye hue


teri gali mein mah-ru pade hue hain chaar-su
tamam zarre khak ke tajalliyan liye hue
na qurb-e-gul ki tab thi na hijr-e-gul mein chain tha
chaman chaman phire hum apna aashiyan liye hue


nigah-e-ahl-e-raaz mein haqiqat o majaz mein
hamari be-nishaniyan tera nishan liye hue
uthe hain hashr mein fida-e-ku-e-yar is tarah
jabin mein sajde dil mein yaad-e-astan liye hue


na dil milega 'bedam' aur na dil ki hasraten kahin
ki gum hua hai yusuf apna karwan liye hue
