sahra-naward kitne isi gham mein mar gae
gir jaenge nazar se agar laut kar gae

wo itne be-khabar hain ki ye bhi khabar nahin
hum imtihan-e-ishq mein jaan se guzar gae

dekha hai hum ne ye bhi takallum ke sath sath
gesu sanwar gae kabhi gesu bikhar gae

kya kya karam hain gardish-e-lail-o-nahaar ke
dekha jo hum ne ghaur se aaine dar gae

hai karwan hi baqi na ab gard-e-karwan
mujh se bichhad ke sare mere ham-safar gae

khamosh hun nawishta-e-taqdir jaan kar
main ne hasin khwab jo dekhe bikhar gae
