tumhaare chehre pe dhyan aise tika hua hai
tamam samton ko ek jaanib rakha hua hai

hare darakhton se belen kaise lipat rahi hain
zamin par aasman kaise jhuka hua hai

wo ek ladki jo mar rahi hai haya ke mare
wo ek ladka jo dekhne par tula hua hai

shab-e-visal us ka surkh aanchal musalla kar ke
badan-wazife ka wird jari rakha hua hai

tu sirf wahshat ke dam pe dil-dasht mein na aana
ye ism bhi raegan hai mera padha hua hai

phir us ke baad us ne meri aankhen bhi gili kar din
main puchh baitha tha teri aankhon ko kya hua hai

ye waqt-e-maghrib se qabl ka aaftab 'sarmad'
ye us ke hathon mein kaise kaise laga hua hai
