khulus chehron se hai numayan to phir nazar bad-guman kyon hai
bata ki beganagi ka aalam mere tere darmiyan kyon hai

yahan wafa ki na qadr-o-qimat na aashna-e-wafa hai koi
mujhe wafa ka sila milega ye mere dil mein guman kyon hai

kabhi na main us taraf se guzra na mera dast-e-talab hi phaila
to phir ye rah-e-talab mein aakhir mere qadam ka nishan kyon hai

har ek dar par jabin jhukana tujhe mubarak magar ye sun le
jo tujh mein khuddariyan nahin hain to ishq ki aan-ban kyon hai

bahut dinon mein aman mili hai khud apne sae mein aa ke mujh ko
ye sochta hun ki ghar ke bahar kisi taraf saeban kyon hai

na un ka jalwa na un ki yaaden na un ka chehra na un ka partaw
dimagh rah rah ke puchhta hai makin nahin to makan kyon hai

koi to is mein fareb hoga jise 'ziya' main samajh na paya
na jaane kab se ye sochta hun wo is qadar mehrban kyon hai
