shab-e-hijr mein yaad aana kisi ka
satae hue ko satana kisi ka

kabhi pyar ki baaten wo chupke chupke
kabhi naz se ruth jaana kisi ka

wo bholi adaen na kyun yaad aaen
ladakpan mein tha kya zamana kisi ka

kabhi thi wo ghusse ki chitwan qayamat
kabhi aajizi se manana kisi ka

wo dil ban ke dam-e-mohabbat mein aaya
ki zulfon mein tha aashiyana kisi ka

nazar lag gai mere dushman ki mujh ko
qayamat hua ruth jaana kisi ka

khilaega gul rang laega ai 'shad'
tujhe dekh kar muskurana kisi ka
