milan na raegan jae samay se par milen
ki ek dusre ka ban ke hum qarar milen

ajib apna muqaddar ajib mahrumi
ki tere hote hue tere intizar milen

main naqd-e-jaan ko bhi shauq se rakhun girwi
tumhaare qurb ke lamhe agar udhaar milen

bahaar phul dhanak chandni ghata mausam
tumhaari ek hansi par sabhi nisar milen

jo khol khol ke dekhun ye zakhm-ha-e-jigar
ajab nahin ki hamein doston ke war milen

khusha nasib ki manzil qarib-tar hogi
dhamal dalo jo raste mein tum ko khar milen

hadon ne chhin liya hai hamara qurb sanam
so apne apne badan ko zara utar milen

ye imtiyaz-e-man-o-tu mitega kab aakhir
myan-e-talib-o-mtlub bhi hisar milen

samajh gaya tha tujhe dekhte hi jaan-e-'shajar'
hazar bar lutenge jo ek bar milen
