guzar raha hai idhar se to muskuraata ja
khile nahin hain jo ghunche unhen khilata ja

tujhe qasam hai sukun-azma nigahon ki
kisi gharib ki taqdir ko jagata ja

wahi nigah wahi ek tabassum-e-rangin
charagh-e-anjuman-e-yas ko bujhata ja

junun-nawaz teri mast-gamiyon ke nisar
kamand-e-hosh-o-khirad se mujhe chhudata ja

fareb-khurda-e-bazm-e-hayat hun yani
meri nigah se ab ye hijab uthata ja

utha ke chehra-e-rangin se parda-e-asrar
harim-e-dil ko phir ek bar jagmagata ja
