tere khayal ne ehsan la-jawab kiya
nafas nafas ko mere waqf-e-iztirab kiya

adu ka harf-e-malamat bana meri shohrat
usi ne khak ke zarre ko aaftab kiya

teri nazar ko nazar lag na jae duniya ki
bhare jahan mein jo mera hi intikhab kiya

qadam qadam pe rahi justaju-e-nam-o-numud
isi hawas ne hamein umr-bhar kharab kiya

azal ke din se andhere mera muqaddar the
teri nazar ne mujhe rashk-e-mahtab kiya

gila kiya tha taghaful ka 'chand' kyun us se
tujhi ko ashk-e-nadamat ne aap aab kiya
