tujh se mil kar dil mein rah jati hai armanon ki baat
yaad rahti hai kisi sahil pe tufanon ki baat

wo to kahiye aaj bhi zanjir mein jhankar hai
warna kis ko yaad rah jati hai diwanon ki baat

kya na thi tum ko khabar ai kaj-kalahan-e-bahaar
bu-e-gul ke sath hi phailegi zindanon ki baat

khair ho mere junun ki khil gae sadha gulab
warna koi puchhta hi kya bayabanon ki baat

kya kabhi hoti kisi ki tu magar ai zindagi
zahr pi kar hum ne rakh li tere diwanon ki baat

rishta-e-yaad-e-butan tuta na tark-e-ishq se
hai haram mein ab bhi zer-e-lab sanam-khanon ki baat

ham-nashin us ke lab o rukhsar hon ya sair-e-gul
tazkira koi bhi ho niklegi mai-khanon ki baat

bazm-e-anjum ho ki bazm-e-khak ya bazm-e-khayal
jis jagah jao sunai degi insanon ki baat

ibn-e-adam khosha-e-gandum pe hai mail-ba-jang
ye na hai masjid ka qissa aur na but-khanon ki baat

phul se bhi narm-tar 'wamiq' kabhi apna kalam
aur kabhi talwar hum aashufta-samanon ki baat
