Ye dil mera jo bohat beqaraar rehta hai,
na jaane kiska isay intezaar rehta hai,

Wo duur ho ke bhi rehta hai saat-saat meray,
meray khayal ke rath par sawar rehta hai,

Kaha tha ishq na karna kisi se dil mairay,
junu.n mei.n khud pay kaha ikhteyaar rehta hai,

Udaasi jeel sii ankho.n say jab tapakti hai,
kinaray aab kohi sogwar rehta hai,

Ye dil darakta hai bas teri chaap ke sadqay,
mareez-e-shab ko tera intezaar rehta hai,

Kabhi to khul kay baras ja meri zameeno.n pay,
ke dasht-e-hijr mei.n haar suu ghubaar rehta hai,

Tu mujh Ebad ko izn-e-beyaa.n ataa kar day,
Ke baat karnay ko dil beqaraar rehta hai.
