bhari aati hain har ghadi ankhen
goya savan ki hain jhadi ankhen
nargis aath aath aansu roti hai
yaad kar vo badi badi ankhen
sharar-afshani-e-sarishk se raat
thiin miri jaise phuljhadi ankhen
juun qalam-rau rahi hain ashk-e-siyah
dekh is missi ki dhadi ankhen
‘mushafi’ dekh bad bala hai vo shokh
na mila us se har ghadi ankhen
