uf wo ek harf-e-tamanna jo hamare dil mein tha

aish hi aish hai na sab gham hai

masti-e-gam bhi thi ghaflat-e-anjam ke sath

aankhon mein ashk bhar ke mujhse nazar mila ke

ahl-e-zahir ko fann-e-jalwa-gari ne mara

nind aa gai thi manzil-e-irfan se guzar ke

ek aah-e-zer-e-lab ke gunahgar ho gae

tere halke se tabassum ka ishaara bhi to ho

aankh kuchh be-sabab hi nam to nahin

manzil-e-dil mili kahan KHatm-e-safar ke baad bhi

tai kar chuke ye zindagi-e-jawedan se hum

kitne dil TuTe hain duniya ka KHabar hone tak

hujum-e-aish-o-tarab mein bhi hai bashar tanha

kam-zarf ehtiyat ki manzil se aae hain

shikwe hum apni zaban par kabhi lae to nahin

dabi aawaz mein karti thi kal shikwe zamin mujhse

rah-e-ulfat mein mile aise bhi diwane mujhe

naya mai-kade mein nizam aa gaya

jo maqsad girya-e-paiham ka hai wo hum samajhte hain

ham-safar gum raste na-paid ghabraata hun main

ghair puchhen bhi to hum kya apna afsana kahen

din o dil pahli hi manzil mein yahan kaam aae

zarra-e-na-tapida ki KHwahish-e-aftab kya

junun se rah-e-KHirad mein bhi kaam lena tha

ek aah-e-zer-e-lab ke gunahgar ho gae

jawani harif-e-sitam hai to kya gham

gulon ki chah mein tauhin-e-barg-o-bar na kar

zulmat-kadon mein kal jo shua-e-sahar gai

hai KHamosh aansuon mein bhi nashat-e-kaamrani

aisi tanhai hai apne se bhi ghabraata hun main

barham-zan-e-shiraaza-e-ayyam hamin hain

go wasia sahra mein ek haqir zarra hun

tere dayar mein koi gham-ashna to nahin

KHala-e-fikr ka ehsas arz-e-fan se mila

hai wahi marka-e-neki-o-shar mere baad
