mujhe yaad hain wo din jo teri bazm mein guzare
wo jhuki jhuki nigahen wo dabe dabe ishaare

ye tera sukut-e-rangin ye ada-e-be-niyazi
kahin bujh ke rah na jaen meri ruh ke sharare

kabhi shauq-e-zindagi tha kabhi lutf-e-sarkhushi tha
magar ab to ji raha hun teri yaad ke sahaare

ye chaman chaman bahaaren ye rawan-dawan hawaen
inhen kya samajh sakenge gham-e-zindagi ke mare

mujhe kya sukun milta mere ashk kaise thamte
ki machal rahe hain dil mein tere gham ke tez dhaare

kahin hai wajud-e-sahil mujhe kaise bawar aae
meri kashti-e-tamanna na lagi kabhi kinare

shab-e-intizar guzri meri zindagi na badli
wahi 'hosh' mere aansu wahi dubte sitare
