wo agar aae to pur-nur saman hota hai
us ke aane se hi mausam ye jawan hota hai

haal-e-dil kab ye nigahon se bayan hota hai
raaz-e-ulfat na ye auron pe ayan hota hai

na kabhi shor na hi aah-o-fughan hota hai
jo bhi hota hai faqat zer-e-zaban hota hai

yun guzarta hai mulaqat ka har ek lamha
jaise lamhat ka dariya ye rawan hota hai

raat sajti hai sitaron mein koi hai basta
har sitare ka koi ek makan hota hai

jagti aankhon se main khwab hun dekha karti
meri nindon mein basa ek jahan hota hai
