kar ke dil-e-nalan se mere saz kisi ne
di hai mujhe parde se ye aawaz kisi ne

is dil ka hai jo dard wahi jaan hai dil ki
samjha na kabhi ishq ka ye raaz kisi ne

wa bab-e-qafas aur hun main bab-e-qafas par
jaise ki uda li par-e-parwaz kisi ne

taqdir mein jo kuchh meri hansna hai ki rona
bakhsha wahi dil ko mere andaz kisi ne

har ashk ka qatra tha fasana mere dil ka
dekha na mera dida-e-ghammaz kisi ne

di mujh ko tadap wo bhi ba-qadr-e-dil-e-betab
main kya ki ye samjha na tera raaz kisi ne

har sher hai duba hua tasir mein 'kaifi'
bakhsha hai mujhe khama-e-eajaz kisi ne
