sabab-e-dard-e-jigar yaad aaya
yani wo tir-e-nazar yaad aaya

jhilmilane lage palkon pe nujum
phir koi rashk-e-qamar yaad aaya

apni manzil ke nishan pate hi
mujh ko aaghaz-e-safar yaad aaya

dekh kar aaina kis soch mein ho
kya koi ahl-e-nazar yaad aaya

bhulne wale tadap utthega
main kisi waqt agar yaad aaya

un ki pazeb udhar gunj uthi
shor-e-zanjir idhar yaad aaya

kyon ye bikhra liye gesu tum ne
kya koi khak-basar yaad aaya

ek haalat mein basar ho na saki
sham ko waqt-e-sahar yaad aaya

hil gaya qalb-e-do-alam 'jarrar'
kaun karta hua fariyaad aaya
