Is darja hua KHush ki Dara dil se bahut main

is darja hua KHush ki Dara dil se bahut main
KHud toD diya baDh ke tamannaon ka dhaga

taki na banun phir kahin ek banda-e-majbur
han qaid-e-mohabbat se yahi soch ke bhaga

Thokar jo lagi apne azaem ne sambhaala
main ne to kabhi koi sahaara nahin manga

chalta raha main ret pe pyasa tan-e-tanha
bahti rahi kuchh dur pe ek pyar ki ganga

main tujh ko magar jaan gaya sham-e-tamanna
samjhi thi ki jal jaega shaer hai patinga

aankhon mein abhi tak hai KHumar-e-gham-e-jaanan
jaise ki koi KHwab-e-mohabbat se hai jaga

jo KHud ko badal dete hain is daur mein 'baqar'
karte hain haqiqat mein wo sone pe suhaga
