dar ke kisi se chhup jaata hai jaise saanp khazane men zar ke zor se zinda hain sab khaak ke

chaman main rang-e-bahar utra to main ne dekha nazar se dil ka ghubar utra to main ne dekha main nim-shab

chand nikla hai sar-e-qarya-e-zulmat dekho ho gai kaisi siyah-khanon ki rangat dekho samne jo hai use aankh ka dhoka samjho

be-khayali men yunhi bas ik irada kar liya apne dil ke shauq ko had se ziyada kar liya jante the

be-haqiqat duriyon ki dastan hoti gai ye zamin misl-e-sarab-e-asman hoti gai kis kharabi men hua paida jamal-e-zindagi asl kis naql-e-makan

beganagi ka abr-e-giran-e-bar khul gaya shab main ne us ko chheda to vo yaar khul gaya galiyon men shaam hote

bechain bahut phirna ghabrae hue rahna ik aag si jazbon ki dahkae hue rahna chhalkae hue chalna khushbu lab-e-lalin ki

bas ek mah-e-junun-khez ki ziya ke siva nagar men kuchh nahin baaqi raha hava ke siva hai ek aur bhi

baith jaata hai vo jab mahfil men aa ke samne main hi bas hota huun us ki is ada ke

aur hain kitni manzilen baaqi jaan kitni hai jism men baaqi zinda logon ki bud-o-bash men hain murda logon ki
