phir hasin wadi-e-gulshan mein saja li aankhen
jab se us shokh ki dekhi hain ghazali aankhen

tu ne ai dost ye kyon mujh se chura li aankhen
ab liye phirta hun dar dar pe sawali aankhen

dil mein uthne lage tufan-o-hawadis paiham
un ki aankhon se ye kyon main ne mila li aankhen

muztarib ho gaya dil apna nazaron ke liye
dekh kar mujh ko kisi ne jo chhupa li aankhen

meri aankhon ko mayassar tha sukun jin ke sabab
chhup gain jaane kahan ab wo misali aankhen

kaise hum karte tamannaon ka izhaar 'amir'
lab idhar khole udhar us ne nikali aankhen
