silsila jab teri baaton ka jawan hota hai
tab har ek jam-ba-kaf jaane kahan hota hai

uf re wo aah jo sine se nikal bhi na sake
hae wo dard jo aankhon mein nihan hota hai

khud-farebi hai thakan hai ki shikasta-pai
har qadam par mujhe manzil ka guman hota hai

in ki nazron ka badhawa hai wagarna hum se
haal-e-dil kab kisi surat mein bayan hota hai

mahfil-e-ghair mein kya ishq-o-wafa ki baaten
yan to ye zikr bhi zehnon pe giran hota hai
