yun tasawwur mein basar raat kiya karte the
lab na khulte the magar baat kiya karte the

hae wo raat ki soti thi khudai sari
hum kisi dar pe munajat kiya karte the

yaad hai bandagi-e-ahl-e-mohabbat jis par
aap bhi fakhr o mabahat kiya karte the

hum kabhi mo'takif-e-kunj-e-haram ho kar bhi
sajda-e-pir-e-kharabaat kiya karte the

yaad karta hai usi ahd-e-guzishta ko 'shafiq'
jab tum altaf o inayat kiya karte the
