sar-e-bazm-e-talab raqs-e-sharar hone se Darti hun

sar-e-bazm-e-talab raqs-e-sharar hone se darti hun
ki main khud par mohabbat ki nazar hone se darti hun
bachana chahti hun us ko suraj ki tamazat se
magar main us ke raste ka shajar hone se darti hun


kabhi us ke khayalon mein nahin jati thi dariya par
aur ab ye waqt aaya hai ki ghar hone se darti hun
agar ye sach hai khushbu aur mohabbat chhup nahin sakte
to kyun apni mohabbat ki khabar hone se darti hun


main apni zat mein bhige paron ka bojh hun shayad
kisi be-baal-o-par ke baal-o-par hone se darti hun
mujhe dushman ka bhi dil todna achchha nahin lagta
kisi ki bad-duaon ka asar hone se darti hun


bhala tashbih se rutba mera kyun kam kare koi
'qamar' hun is liye rashk-e-qamar hone se darti hun
