us ne kiya hai wada-e-farda aane do us ko aae to
nam badal dena phir mera laut ke wapas jae to

arz-e-tamanna karenge us se agar na wo thukrae to
us se zarur milenge ja kar pahle hamein bulae to

izzat-e-nafs ka hai ye taqaza husn-e-suluk karen donon
us ko hum labbaik kahenge rasm-e-wafa nibhae to

safha-e-zehn pe naqsh hai us ka mere abhi tak naz-o-niyaz
jaise sharmata tha pahle waise hi sharmae to

ruthne aur manane ke ehsas mein hai ek kaif-o-surur
main ne hamesha use manaya wo bhi mujhe manae to

kyun rahta hai mujh se bad-zan hai jo mera manzur-e-nazar
kuchh nahin aata meri samajh mein koi mujhe samjhae to

khun-e-jigar se sinchunga gulzar-e-tamanna us ke liye
bagh-e-hayat mein gul-e-mohabbat aa kar mere khilae to

fasl-e-khizan mein kya hoga aasar numayan hain jis ke
fasl-e-bahaar mein 'barqi' apne dil ki kali murjhae to
