pal bhar ko jis mein chain na aae chhod do us kashane ko
gulshan hi jab ki ras nahin aabaad karo virane ko

hijr ki raat thi itni lambi kate se nan katti thi
gham ki jot jagai main ne is dil ke bahlane ko

kya kya neamat bakhshi hai us pyare ne ye mat puchho
dard diya kuchh dagh diye aur ashk diye pi jaane ko

koi to tabir batae khwab ek main ne dekha hai
masjid ko sab rind chale aur shaikh chale maikhane ko

aandhi aur tufan bhi is ko rok sake na rahon mein
dur se aaya hai parwana shama hi par mit jaane ko

unchi nichi tirchhi tedhi sab rahen jo dekh chuka
kaun aa kar samjhaega ab is 'rajas' diwane ko
