mohabbat ko riya ki qaid se aazad karna hai
hamein phir aarzuon ka nagar aabaad karna hai

shikast-e-fash deni hai man-o-tu ke rawayyon ko
marasim ki bahaali ka hunar ijad karna hai

ye kya jabr-e-talluq hai ki phir tere hawale se
kisi ko bhul jaana hai kisi ko yaad rakhna hai

guzishta ahd mein bhi jurm tha ye kar-e-haq-goi
hamari nasl ko bhi ye ba-sad uftad karna hai

kai digar hawale bhi surur-o-rahat-e-dil hain
gae mausam ki nisbat se tumhein bhi yaad karna hai

hamare sher agar jazbon ko khushbu de nahin sakte
to phir to sher kahna waqt ko barbaad karna hai
