taqdir-e-wafa ka phut jaana
main bhula na dil ka tut jaana

kya deta rahega dil pe dastak
ek jumla jo main ne jhut jaana

ek surat utarna ghazal mein
lafzon ka pasina chhut jaana

kya roun tujhe ai dhyan-darpan
pal bhar mein hai tujh ko tut jaana

kis darja surur-bakhsh tha wo
us kuche mein jhut-mut jaana

ruk jaega sath dhadkanon ke
khamoshi ka tut-phut jaana

wo aana kisi ka dil mein 'raghib'
aur sabr-o-qarar lut jaana
