phir shab-e-gham ne mujhe shakl dikhai kyunkar
ye bala ghar se nikali hui aai kyunkar

kat sake sakhti-e-ayyam-e-judai kyunkar
ghair ko aae ilahi meri aai kyunkar

tu ne ki ghair se kal meri burai kyunkar
gar na thi dil mein to lab par tere aai kyunkar

na kahunga na kahunga na kahunga hargiz
ja ke us bazm mein shamat meri aai kyunkar

khul gai baat jab un ki to wo puchhte hain
munh se nikli hui hoti hai parai kyunkar

dad-khwahon se wo kahte hain ki hum bhi to sunen
doge tum hashr mein sab mil ke duhai kyunkar

tum dil-azar o sitamgar nahin main ne mana
man jaegi ise sari khudai kyunkar

na-gahan shikwa-e-bedad to kar baithe hum
ab ye hai fikr karen un se safai kyunkar

aap mein bhi to rahi aatish-e-tar ki tezi
aag pani mein ye saqi ne lagai kyunkar

allah allah buton ko hai ye dast-e-qudrat
un ki mutthi mein rahi sari khudai kyunkar

wo yahan aaen wahan ghair ka ghar ho barbaad
is tarah se ho safai mein safai kyunkar

majlis-e-waz ko dekha to kaha rindon ne
hogi is bhid ki jannat mein samai kyunkar

aaina dekh kar wo kahne lage aap hi aap
aise achchhon ki kare koi burai kyunkar

kasrat-e-ranj-o-alam sun ke ye ilzam mila
itne se dil mein hai itnon ki samai kyunkar

us ne sadqe mein kiye aaj hazaron aazad
dekhiye hoti hai aashiq ki rihai kyunkar

'dagh' ko mehr kaha ashk ko dariya hum ne
aur phir karte hain chhoton ki badai kyunkar

'dagh' kal to dua aap ki maqbul na thi
aaj munh-mangi murad aap ne pai kyunkar
