Hijr kii shab naalaa-e-dil vo sadaa dene lage,
sunane vaale raat kaTane kii duaa dene lage,

kis nazar se aap ne dekhaa dil-e-majaruuh ko,
zaKhm jo kuchh bhar chale the phir havaa dene lage,

juz zamiin-e-kuu-e-jaanaa.N kuchh nahii.n pesh-e-nigaah,
jis kaa daravaazaa nazar aayaa sadaa dene lagaa,

baaGh baa.N ne aag dii jab ashiyaane ko mere,
jin pe takiyaa thaa vahii patte havaa dene lage,

muTThiyo.n me.n Khaak lekar dost aaye vaqt-e-dafn,
zindagii bhar kii muhabbat kaa silaa dene lage,

aa_iinaa ho jaaye meraa ishq un ke husn kaa,
kyaa mazaa ho dard agar Khud hii davaa dene lage.
