main pareshan hun milen chand niwale kaise
us ko daulat wo mili hai ki sambhaale kaise

ungliyan apni naginon se sajaane wale
tujh ko lagte hain mere hath ke chhaale kaise

ilm se pher lin tu ne jo nigahen apni
phir tere zehn mein phutenge ujale kaise

dekhte rah gae pani ki rawani hum log
raste logon ne dariya mein nikale kaise

umr lag jati hai ek ghar ko banane mein hamein
makadiyan roz hi bun leti hain jale kaise

tu ne 'akhlaq' qasam khai thi zabt-e-gham ki
phir ye palkon pe nami honton pe nale kaise
