raat ek shahr ne taza kiye manzar apne
nind aaankhon se udi khol ke shahpar apne

tum sar-e-dasht-o-chaman mujh ko kahan dhundte ho
main to har rut mein badal deta hun paikar apne

yahi virana bacha tha to khuda ne aakhir
rakh diye dil mein mere sat samundar apne

roz wo shakhs sada de ke palat jata hai
main bhi rahta hun bahut jism se bahar apne

kis qadar pas-e-murawwat hai wafadaron ko
mere sine mein chhupa rakkhe hain khanjar apne

koi sultan nahin mere siwa mera sharik
masnad-e-khak pe baitha hun barabar apne
