khatm hui shab-e-wafa khwab ke silsile gae
jis dar-e-nim-baz ke pesh the marhale gae

jo rag-e-abr-o-baad se ta-ba-rag-e-junun rahen
ishq ki wo hikayaten husn ke wo gile gae

shukr-o-sipas ka maza de hi gaya sukut-e-yar
wasl-o-firaq se alag dard ke hausle gae

ek mere ham-kanar ki mujh se qarib aa ke raat
khema-e-dard ho gai qurb ke walwale gae

dasht mein qaht-e-ab se hijrat-e-tairan ke baad
sair-pasand-o-tar-nafas abr ke qafile gae

ai ye fasun-e-dilbari taza-rukh-o-siyah-chashm
manzil-e-qurb bhi gai tujh se na fasle gae

nind mein mahwashan-e-shahr bosa-e-ashiqan ki khair
shab-ba-hawa-e-narm-sair subh hui sile gae

ai rukh-e-taza-jahan raat to ab bhi hai garan
sham-e-hazar-rang tak yun tere silsile gae

daman-e-dil ki ot se ek shab-e-firaq kya
daur-e-taghayyur-e-jahan sab tere qafile gae
