mera gham-gusar koi nahin kisi lab pe aai dua nahin
mere chaaragar tere pas bhi mere dard-e-dil ki dawa nahin

kabhi sath sath hai tu mere kabhi dur tak bhi piya nahin
mere ham-safar teri dosti ka ye raaz kya hai khula nahin

teri aarzu meri zindagi teri justuju meri bandagi
teri yaad meri namaz hai koi kaam is ke siwa nahin

wahi be-khudi wahi sarkhushi wahi be-hoshi wahi gumrahi
mujhe aap apni talash hai main kahan hun mujh ko pata nahin

ye to apna apna khulus hai ye to apna apna suluk hai
koi chahne se gira nahin koi puchhne se utha nahin

tujhe mangne se milega kya tera sar jhukane se hoga kya
ye to pattharon ka jahan hai yahan koi tera khuda nahin

main khizan-nasib sada raha main bhari bahaar mein lut gaya
mujhe ras aai na zindagi mujhe mil ke kuchh bhi mila nahin

na to ab khushi ki talash hai na sukun ki mujhe aarzu
yahi zindagi ka hai faisla ki khushi bhi gham ke siwa nahin

wo nafas nafas mein khalish teri wo tere khulus ki be-rukhi
tujhe har qadam yahi khauf hai tera gham to mujh se juda nahin

wahi dil mein hai wahi lab pe hai wahi aansuon mein rawan-dawan
use kaise bhulun 'sahar' bata jo mere nafas se juda nahin
