rahiye ahbab se kat kar ki waba ke din hain
sans bhi lijiye hat kar ki waba ke din hain

wo jinhen khud se bhi milne ki nahin thi fursat
rah gae khud mein simat kar ki waba ke din hain

raunaq-e-bazm-e-jahan khud ko samajhne wale
aa gae ghar ko palat kar ki waba ke din hain

kya kisi aur se ab harf-e-tasalli kahiye
roiye khud se lipat kar ki waba ke din hain

ek jhatke mein hue shah-o-gada zer-o-zabar
rah gai duniya ulat kar ki waba ke din hain

sab ko malum hai tabir to yaksan hogi
khwab hi dekh len hat kar ki waba ke din hain

ek kamre mein simat aai hai sari duniya
rah gae khanon mein bat kar ki waba ke din hain

ye mera rang-e-taghazzul to nahin hai lekin
ek ghazal likkhi hai hat kar ki waba ke din hain
