teri chashm-e-tar mein rawan-dawan gham-e-ishq ka jo malal hai
ye hi ibtida-e-firaq hai ye hi intiha-e-visal hai

hai qarib phir bhi hai ajnabi tu idhar nahin main udhar nahin
kisi rah ke hain do samt hum main junub hun tu shumal hai

meri haalaton mein nihan hain ab teri justuju ki kharabiyan
na main gham-zada na main shadman mera haal bhi koi haal hai

tu sitam kare to inayaten main gila karun to shikayaten
tera har sukhan wahi arsh ki mera bolna bhi muhaal hai

wo bura kahe mujhe raat-din ye raza hai us ke mizaj ki
use 'afi' main bhi bura kahun kahan mujh mein itni majal hai
