Hoti hai tere naam se wahshat kabhi kabhi,
barham hui hai yu'n bhi tabiyat kabhi kabhi,

ai dil kise nasib ye taufiq-e-iztirab,
milti hai zindagi mai'n ye rahat kabhi kabhi,

tere karam se ai alam-e-husn-e-aafri'n,
dil ban gaya hai dost ki khilwat kabhi kabhi,

dil ko kaha'n nasib ye taufiq-e-iztirab,
milti hai zindagi mai'n ye rahat kabhi kabhi,

josh-e-junu'n mai'n dard ki tugyaniyo'n ke sath,
ashko''n main dhal gai teri surat kabhi kabhi,

tere qarib rah ke bhi dil mutmain na tha,
guzri hai mujh pe bhi ye qayamat kabhi kabhi,

kuchh apna hosh tha na tumhara khayal tha,
yu'n bhi guzar gai shab-e-furqat kabhi kabhi,

ai dost ham ne tark-e-muhabbat ke bawajud,
mahsus ki hai teri zarurat kabhi kabhi.
