wahshat-zadon ki kitni dilchasp hain adaen
kuchh der khun roen kuchh der muskuraen

hairan hain kidhar hum bahr-e-talash jaen
aati hain har taraf se un ki hi ab sadaen

gunji huin hain mere nalon se ye fazaen
ya kali kali raaten karti hain saen saen

us waqt khas rahraw himmat na haar jaen
manzil qarib samjhen jab panw dagmagaen

ye dekhna hai mujh par kya bijliyan giraen
badli to hain hawaen utthi to hain ghataen

uf sharmgin nigahen barbaad-kun adaen
ye nimche kisi ke dil mein na dub jaen

ab hichkiyan bani hain rukh naza mein badal kar
mayus aarzuen nakaam iltijaen

dil ki tabahiyon par masrur hone wale
dil hi na ho to tere jalwe kahan samaen

pahle hi sochte tum aahon ka ab gila kya
jo bandh gain hawaen wo bandh gain hawaen

main lafz-e-dost sun kar darta hun dil hi dil mein
wo mujh se 'abr' ki hain ahbab ne daghaen
