main ladkhadaya to mujh ko gale lagane lage
gunahgar bhi meri hansi udane lage

meri qadim riwayat ko aazmane lage
mukhalifin bhi ab kashtiyan jalane lage

dil-e-haris se tamir ki hawas na gai
wo sath-e-ab pe kaghaz ka ghar banane lage

kisi ki rah-e-munawwar mein moajaza ye hua
hamare naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa bhi jagmagane lage

na jaane kis ka hamein intizar rahne laga
ki taq-e-dil pe diya roz hum jalane lage

hue kuchh itne mohazzab ki sans ghutne lagi
junun-pasand gale tak batan lagane lage

jinhon ne kanton pe chalna hamein sikhaya tha
hamari rah mein wo phul ab bichhane lage

shurua ho gaya aankhon mein jashn-e-khush-khwabi
hui jo raat to har samt shamiyane lage
