meri aarzu nae rup bhar ke hazar phul khilaegi
mujhe apne bagh se ishq hai to kabhi bahaar bhi aaegi

mere sathiyon ne qadam qadam pe diye bujha bhi diye to kya
nae raston mein nai umang nae charagh jalaegi

mere gham pe tana-zani na kar main nahin hun munkir-e-sarkhushi
abhi sogwar hai zindagi kabhi ga sakegi to gaegi

main chaman-parast sahi magar mujhe apne dil se ye khauf hai
jo chaman ka haal yahi raha to qafas ki yaad sataegi

jinhen kal ki koi khabar nahin wo gham-e-khizan ka gila karen
mujhe ye yaqin hai ki fasl-e-gul jo ab aaegi to na jaegi
