Poet
charagh jalne lagen aur dil machalne lage
udhar ho raat udhar koi ji ko malne lage
udaas os ki bundon se bujhne-jalne lage
tum aa raho to sitaron ki lau sambhalne lage
ye devdar ki Tahni pe tham gaya sa chand
hava chale to abhi karvaTen badalne lage
tamam-rat dhuan sa uchhalti rahi raat
ruki to ThiThure hue hath-paon jalne lage
ab in hari-bhari saḌkon ka jaane kya hoga
thi jin se raah vahi rasta badalne lage
jo badalon men tiri maang si lakiron par
nazar ga.i to dilon men charagh jalne lage
ruko to dard sa Thahra sujha.i de dil men
chalo to ‘ashk’ kasak saath saath chalne lage
