sochiye garmi-e-guftar kahan se aai
lab-ba-lab khwahish-e-izhaar kahan se aai

kis hina-hath se aangan hai moattar itna
waqt-e-khush saat-e-bedar kahan se aai

han ye mumkin hai naya mod ho phulon jaisa
phir ye pazeb ki jhankar kahan se aai

khun mein nashsha-e-izhaar ka khanjar paiwast
darmiyan chup ki ye talwar kahan se aai

hum kharabe ke musafir hain hamare dil mein
aarzu-e-dar-o-diwar kahan se aai

sochta hun ki khush-andaz dilon mein ai 'raaz'
shorish-e-khu-e-dil-azar kahan se aai
