iztirab-e-dil mein aa ja kar dawam aa hi gaya

mahfil-e-naz se main ho ke pareshan uTha

kyun KHayal-e-ranj-o-rahat se na hon begana hum

kabhi soz-e-dil ka gila kiya kabhi lab se shor-e-fughan uTha

aa gai dil ki lagi baDh ke rag-e-jaan ke qarib

kaun is rang se jame se hua tha bahar

han ye to bata ai dil-e-mahrum-e-tamanna

kho diya shohrat ne apni sher-KHwani ka maza

hum panw bhi paDte hain to allah-re naKHwat

hath rahte hain kai din se gareban ke qarib
