meri aankhen meri ninden mera paikar jage
dard so jae to ehsas barabar jage

din to ahbab ki surat hai gurezan mujh se
raat aae to mere gham mein barabar jage

kitne manus hain masjid ke shikasta gumbad
jab parinde nahin laute to ye shab-bhar jage

jeth ki dhup ne jhulsa diye jin ke chehre
un darakhton hi ke sawan mein muqaddar jage

raat gulshan mein 'ajab tarh ka mahaul raha
ped sote rahe shakhon pe kabutar jage

kab se sahil pe hai be-khwab barahna machhli
phir shanawar koi dube to samundar jage

jis ke ehsas ne jhulsa diye suraj ke gulab
meri aankhon mein usi dhup ke manzar jage
