tabiat be-niyaz-e-lazzat-e-gham hoti jati hai
kisi se kya meri dil-bastagi kam hoti jati hai

nazar tum ne chura li tum kisi surat nahin milte
isi se ibtida-e-dard-e-paiham hoti jati hai

wo shai jis ko ba-rang-e-ishq main tiryaq samjha tha
wahi shai aaj mere waste sam hoti jati hai

ye dil tut tha jab se ashk aankhon mein nahin thamte
meri hasti gham-e-ulfat ki mahram hoti jati hai

ye duniya ishq ki duniya hai yan dil ki hukumat hai
mohabbat yan har ek shai par muqaddam hoti jati hai

samae ja rahe hain tere jalwe meri aankhon mein
teri hasti meri hasti mein mudgham hoti jati hai

widaa-e-fasl-e-gul nazdik hai ai 'auj' ab shayad
wagarna kyon meri diwangi kam hoti jati hai
