tumhaare gham ko gham-e-jaan bana liya main ne
ki jangalon ko gulon se saja diya main ne

na jaane kitni umiden lahu lahu kar ke
dil-e-tabah ko jina sikha diya main ne

sabab ho kuchh bhi unhen ruthne ki aadat hai
ye sochna hi ghalat hai ki kya kiya main ne

har ek baat mere haq mein thi magar phir bhi
jo faisla tha bahut soch kar kiya main ne

use na bhul saka hun na bhul paunga
ye tajraba to kai bar kar liya main ne

tere baghair meri pyas bujh nahin pai
hamesha yaad kiya tujh ko saqiya main ne

meri bhi khamushi dekhi nahin gai un se
kisi ka zabt-e-sukhan aazma liya main ne

ilaj soz-e-darun ka na ho saka phir bhi
'sahar' ba-nam-e-dawa zahr bhi piya main ne
