tere diwane teri chashm o nazar se pahle
dar se guzre teri rahguzar se pahle

bazm se dur wo gata raha tanha tanha
so gaya saz pe sar rakh ke sahar se pahle

is andhere mein ujalon ka guman tak bhi na tha
shoala-ru shoala-nawa shola-nazar se pahle

kaun jaane ki ho kya rang-e-sahar rang-e-chaman
mai-kada raqs mein hai pichhle pahar se pahle

nikhat-e-yar se aabaad hai har kunj-e-qafas
mil ke aai hai saba us gul-e-tar se pahle
