kis se karenge arz-e-tamanna kahen jise
milta nahin hai koi bhi apna kahen jise

girti hui hayat ki diwar thamiye
lazim hai dard dil ka sahaara kahen jise

mai-khana-e-hayat mein bahti hai ju-e-khun
saqi tera taghaful-e-be-ja kahen jise

khun-e-jigar se bazm-e-tamanna hai lala-rang
mahrumiyan hain aur dil-e-shaida kahen jise

aabaad un ke jazb-e-mohabbat ke dam se hai
aql-o-dil-o-khayal ki duniya kahen jise

duniya ke hadsat se aasan guzar gae
kitna hasin hai wada-e-farda kahen jise

allah kya hain soz-e-tamanna ki inayat
mar mar ke un ki rah mein jina kahen jise

jab na-gahan mile to kiya wada-e-visal
ye iltifat hai ki bahana kahen jise
