teri palken teri aankhen tere abru ki lachak
teri qamat ki daraazi teri zulfon ki mahak

tere altaf ka aalam teri qurbat ka jamal
tere honton ki khamoshi teri aankhon ke sawal

ek chamakta hua shoala tera rangin badan
ek tadapti hui bijli teri aankhon ki kiran

ek tapta hua sahra teri duri ka khayal
ek mahka hua gulshan hai tera roz-e-visal

ek chadhta hua dariya hai tu ek bahti naw
tere sine ka tamawwuj tere qamat ka bahao

tere andaz ka jadu tere ishwon ka fusun
sab ke sab ban gae mere liye saman-e-junun

tere aghmaz mein pinhan hai mohabbat ki jhalak
lab-e-iqrar pe inkar ka pahra kab tak

chhid gai hai jo kabhi pairahan-e-chust ki baat
phir gai hai meri aankhon mein shagufe ki zat

mere har ek ishaare ko samajhne wala
qulzum-e-waqt ke dhaare ko samajhne wala

mere har naz ko aankhon pe bithaya tu ne
mere andaz ko sine se lagaya tu ne

mere atwar ke sanche mein ba-sad-shauq dhala
aatish-e-gham mein mere waste chup-chap jala

meri khatir gham-e-duri bhi gawara hai tujhe
mere ikhlas ka duniya mein sahaara hai tujhe

meri har baat hai tere liye qanun-e-hayat
tera mehwar hai zamane mein faqat meri zat

aisa masum koi aur zamane mein kahan
itni sachchai kisi aur fasane mein kahan
