na pawe chaal tere ki piyare ye dhalak dariya
chala jawe agarche rowta mahshar talak dariya

kahan aisa mubakki ho ki jawe ta-falak dariya
nahin ham-chashm mere ashk ka mare hai jhuk dariya

hua hai chashm-e-hairat dekh teri aab raftari
kinare nahin raha hai khol in donon palak dariya

bhar aawe aab-e-hasrat us ke munh mein jab lahar aawe
agar dekhe tere in narm galon ke thalak dariya

nahin hain ye hubab aate hain jo nazron mein mardum ki
jalan mujh ashk ki sin dil mein rakhta hai phalak dariya

agar ho koh to rele sin is lashkar ke chal jawe
kahan sakta hai mujh anjhuwan ki faujaan sin atak dariya

asar karne ka nahin sangin-dilan mein rowna hargiz
karare sakht hain be-ja raha hai sar patak dariya

yaqin aaya kiya jab us ke tain pani sin bhi patla
hamare ashk ki garmi mein kuchh rakhta tha shak dariya

nahin mumkin hamare dil ki aatish ka bujha sakna
kare gar abr-e-tufan-khez kun aa kar kumak dariya

na howe 'abru' khana-kharabi kyun ki mardum ki
kya anjhuwan mein mere ab sama sin ta-samak dariya
