zakhm purane phul sabhi basi ho jaenge
dard ke sab qisse yaad-e-mazi ho jaenge

sansen leti taswiron ko chup lag jaegi
sare naqsh karishmon se aari ho jaenge

aankhon se masti na labon se amrit tapkega
shisha-o-jam sharabon se khali ho jaenge

khuli chhaton se chandni raaten katra jaengi
kuchh hum bhi tanhai ke aadi ho jaenge

kucha-e-jaan par gahre baadal chhae rahenge 'zeb'
us ki khidki ke parde bhaari ho jaenge
