auron se alag duniya se juda
yakta-e-zamana hun goya

aap apni khudi ka mazhar hun
naqqash-e-azal ka shah-para

jis soch mein dubi rahti hun
sab log use kya jaanen

gham aur khushi ka paimana
auron se hai yaksar begana

kuchh rang mere mahbub-e-nazar
kuchh sher mere taskin-e-jigar

kuchh rag hain aise
jo ruh ke barbat par bajte hain

khwabon ke larazte sae hain
jazbon ke dahakte angare

in angaron ki hiddat se
ehsas ka tabish milti hai

ehsas ki tabish meri hai
nakaam irade tute arman

taqdir ke hathon nauha-kunan
khwahish ke samundar tufani

kashti ko duboe dete hain
kashti ki tabahi meri hai

is dard ka darman mera hai
is zakhm ki shiddat meri hai

sunsan andheri raaton mein
tanhai ki mashal jalti hai

subhon ki damakti peshani
shahin-e-nazar ki manzil hai

is raat ki wahshat meri hai
is subh ki qurbat meri hai

wijdan-e-khudi ke yaktare par
har tarz nai har rag juda

mujh sa is duniya mein
koi bhi nahin hai mere siwa

is soch ki lazzat meri hai
