mansab-e-ishq ka khayal rahe
zakhm ka silsila bahaal rahe

ye bhi fursat na thi ki dam leta
yun taaqub mein mah-o-sal rahe

hum sar-e-aina rahe jab tak
surat-e-ashk infial rahe

apne aasab mujtama rakhna
dasht-e-gham hai zara khayal rahe

tab-e-guftar jab mayassar hai
zer-e-lab kyon koi sawal rahe

meri aankhen rahen rahen na rahen
tu rahe aur tera jamal rahe

misl-e-binai meri aankhon mein
umr bhar us ke khadd-o-khal rahe
