khwab dekhun ki ratjage dekhun
wahi gesu khule khule dekhun

rang aahang raushni khushbu
ghatte badhte se daere dekhun

kyun na dekhun main roz-o-shab apne
kyun pahadon ke silsile dekhun

main sami-o-basir hun aisa
sunun aansu to qahqahe dekhun

haal ek lamha-e-gurezan hai
mud ke dekhun ki samne dekhun

tujh ko chhune badhun to apne hath
pattharon mein dabe hue dekhun

mera chehra bhi ab nahin mera
ab kin aankhon se main tujhe dekhun
