phir aap ne dekha hai mohabbat ki nazar se
guzre na kahin gardish-e-dauran bhi idhar se

puchhen to zara pech-o-kham-e-rah ki baaten
kuchh log abhi laut ke aae hain safar se

shayad kahin suraj ki kiran sham ko phute
hum shama jalae hue baithe hain sahar se

logo meri aashufta-sari par na karo tanz
ilzam utaro koi us zulf ke sar se

dekha na unhen dida-e-hairat ne dobara
jalwon ko shikayat hai meri tab-e-nazar se

khushbu-e-gul-o-lala chhupa lete hain patte
ab qadr-e-hunar hai to faqat arz-e-hunar se

tare to chamak apni dikhate hain sahar tak
dil dubne lagta hai magar pichhle pahar se

ghairon ki nigahen tere jalwon se hain sairab
ai kash ye baadal meri aankhon pe bhi barse

zulmat hi ke sae mein sukun dhundiye 'mazhar'
khairaat bahut mang chuke nur-e-sahar se
