aankhon mein hain haqir jis-tis ke

yun ghair kuchh kahen to bala ko buri lage

dilbar se hum apne jab milenge

jab talak tir tera aawe hai naKHchir talak

rakhta hai sulh sab se dil us ka pa mujhse jang

aah tazim ko uThti hai mere sine se

na leT is tarah munh par zulf ko bikhra ke ai zalim

jaise ki aaj wasl hua kya na chahiye

isko ummid nahin hai kabhi phir basne ke

aaina hi ko kab tain dikhlaoge jamal

zahir bhi tu hai aur nihan bhi tu hai

dil tujh pe mera jo mubtala rahta hai

na mai ke na jam ke liye marte hain

bulbul ki hazar aashnai dekhi
