shor itna hai ki tanha.i ho mahfil jaise
kisi tufan ki zad men koi sahil jaise
use dekha to ḳhayalon men jo manzil thi ga.i
vo hi tha meri tamannaon ka hasil jaise
main to samjha tha ki ham donon ka jazbat hai naam
aaj lagte ho magar tum kisi aaqil jaise
hama-tan gosh huun avaz pe us ki aise
mere siine men dhaḌakta ho tira dil jaise
pahli manzil pe hi qurban hua yuun ‘arif’
tai hue manzil irfan ke marahil jaise
