koi dil mein sama gaya hua tha

charagh-e-zaKHm-e-tamanna ki lau baDhae hue

koi ruswai hai na shohrat hai

koi gulab kabhi us ka dil dukhaya tha

dil o nigah mein kuchh is tarah sama gai hai

KHuda kare ki khule ek din zamane par

kis ki KHatir ujaD raste par

hawa-e-taza ka jhonka idhar se kya guzra

wo taghaful-shiar kya jaane

ye kar-e-mohabbat bhi kya kar-e-mohabbat hai
