chaman roye ha.Nse shabanam biyaabaa.N par nikhaar aaye 
ek aisaa bhii nayaa mausam mere paravar-digaar aaye 

vo sar khole hamaarii laash par diivaanaavaar aaye 
isii ko maut kahate hai.n to yaa rab baar baar aaye 

sar-e-gor-e-Gariibaa.N aao lekin ye guzaarish hai 
vahaa.N muu.Nh pher kar ronaa jahaa.N meraa mazaar aaye 

bahaa ai chashm-e-tar aisaa bhii ek aa.Nsuu nadaamat kaa 
jise daaman pe lene rahamat-e-paravar-digaar aaye 

qafas ke ho liye ham to magar ai ahal-e-gulashan tum 
hame.n bhii yaad kar lenaa chaman me.n jab bahaar aaye 

na jaane kyaa samajh kar chup huu.N ai sayyaad mai.n varnaa 
vo qaidii huu.N agar chaahuu.N qafas me.n bhii bahaar aaye 

"Qamar" dil kyaa hai mai.n to un kii Khaatir jaan bhii de duu.N 
merii qismat agar un ko na phir bhii aitabaar aaye
