mil gaya jab wo nagin phir khubi-e-taqdir se
dil ko kya kya wahshaten hain sang ki tasir se

jalta bujhta ek jugnu ki tarah tera khayal
bas yahi nisbat hai apni raat ko tanwir se

phir hawa ke hath par baiat ko dil betab hai
aankh phir raushan hui hai gard ki tahrir se

shab na jaane aankh par kya raaz ifsha kar gai
khwab chaknachur ho kar rah gae tabir se

khud-farebi hai ki is ko aagahi ka nam dun
apni qamat napta hai aaj wo shamshir se

is shikasta ghar ka girna yun laga mujh ko 'nizam'
tut jae ek kadi jaise kisi zanjir se
