murjhae hue phir gul-e-tar dekh rahi hun
na-qadri-e-arbab-e-hunar dekh rahi hun

phir chashm-e-taghaful se teri hashr bapa hai
main gardish-e-dauran ki nazar dekh rahi hun

mizhgan pe larazte hue ashkon ke diye hain
wawasta-e-jaan barq-o-sharar dekh rahi hun

kya husn-e-basarat mein basirat ki kami hai
kuchh ahl-e-nazar chaak-e-jigar dekh rahi hun

pindar-e-wafa tamkanat-e-hosh khabar-dar
aflak pe dharti ke qamar dekh rahi hun

ab tak ye riwayat-e-kuhan jag rahi hain
kuchh lal-o-gohar khak-basar dekh rahi hun

kuchh teri nigahon ne dikhaya hai tamasha
kuchh turfa zamane ka asar dekh rahi hun

taskhir-e-mah-o-mehr ke ba-wasf 'aziz' aaj
ujde hue khamosh nagar dekh rahi hun
