kuchh to batao shair-e-bedar kya hua
kis ki talash hai tumhen aur kaun kho gaya
ankhon men raushni bhi hai viraniyan bhi hain
ik chand saath saath hai ik chand gah gaya
tum ham-safar hue to hui zindagi aziiz
mujh men to zindagi ka koi hausla na tha
tum hi kaho ki ho bhi sakega mira ilaaj
agli mohabbaton ke mire zakhm-ashna
jhanka hai main ne khalvat-e-jan men nigar-e-jan
koi nahin hai koi nahin hai tire siva
vo aur tha koi jise dekha hai bazm men
gar mujh ko DhunDna hai miri khalvaton men aa
ai mere khvab aa miri ankhon ko rang de
ai meri raushni tu mujhe rasta dikha
ab aa bhi ja ki subh se pahle hi bujh na ja.un
ai mere aftab bahut tez hai hava
ya-rab ata ho zakhm koi sher-afrin
ik umr ho gai ki mira dil nahin dukha
vo daur aa gaya hai ki ab sahiban-e-dard
jo khvab dekhte hain vahi khvab na-rasa
daman bane to rang hua dastaras se duur
mauj-e-hava hue to hai khushbu gurez-pa
likkhen bhi kya ki ab koi ahval-e-dil nahin
chikhen bhi kya ki ab koi sunta nahin sada
ankhon men kuchh nahin hai ba-juz khak-e-rahguzar
siine men kuchh nahin hai ba-juz nala-o-nava
pahchan lo hamen ki tumhari sada hain ham
sun lo ki phir na aenge ham se ghazal-sara
