aap apni bevafai dekhiye
ham se aur aisi burai dekhiye
baat phir ham se banai dekhiye
phir vahi taqrir aai dekhiye
aaina us but ko dikhla kar kaha
aur surat haath aai dekhiye
arsh ki zanjir par turra hua
nala-e-dil ki rasai dekhiye
ham asiran-e-tilism-e-khak hain
kya hua vaqt-e-rihai dekhiye
maar daala munh chhupa kar aap ne
maut kis parde men aai dekhiye
aamad aamad mausam-e-gul ki hue
phir tabiat gud-gudai dekhiye
dagh-e-dil taara hai chashm-e-mehr ka
ishq ki jalva-numai dekhiye
meri janib yuun nazar karna na tha
aap ne bijli girai dekhiye
phenkiye hathon se phulon ki chhadi
meri gul-khurda kalai dekhiye
chashm-poshi is qadar achchhi nahin
ab to jaan ankhon men aai dekhiye
ek din ro ro ke tufan laenge
is qadar na-ashnai dekhiye
vaah re surma lagana aap ka
shakh-e-nargis hai salai dekhiye
saaf hai aina-e-askandari
is miri dil ki safai dekhiye
der hoti hai hamari qatl men
ye nahin achchhi jhukai dekhiye
laiye pilvaiye jam-e-sharab
dekhiye badle vo aai dekhiye
mar gae lekin na raz-e-dil khula
aah bhi lab tak na aai dekhiye
vo na aana tha na aae ai ‘saba’
rafta rafta maut aai dekhiye
