shorish-e-harf hai ayagh mein kuchh
likh qalam manzil-e-balagh mein kuchh

dekhe jata hai wo qadam ke nishan
mil gaya hai use suragh mein kuchh

aaftab aur ye siyah-khana
tu ne dekha hai dil ke dagh mein kuchh

sari duniya ko mar di thokar
aa gaya tha mere dimagh mein kuchh

zikr-e-bagh-e-naim hai wallah
lutf aane laga faragh mein kuchh

bujh raha hai ufuq pe ab suraj
aap rakh dijiye charagh mein kuchh

ai 'qamar' aankh se utar dil mein
zau-fishani ho dil ke bagh mein kuchh
