Jab ki sari kaenat uski nigahbani mein hai

jab ki sari kaenat us ki nigahbani mein hai
dil azal hi se na jaane kaisi hairani mein hai

meri fitrat bhi to shamil meri nadani mein hai
laghzish-e-adam jo pinhan KHun-e-insani mein hai

jaane kis hangam mein Dali gai buniyaad-e-dil
dil jo ab tak mubtala ranj-o-pareshani mein hai

dur kar deta hai bas ek pal mein sab shikwe-gile
ye karishma bhi kisi ki aankh ke pani mein hai

kya samajh paenge ye ahl-e-KHirad is raaz ko
lutf danai mein kab wo hai jo nadani mein hai

dil mein aata hai hisar-e-har-talab ko toD dun
aisi KHwahish bhi tamannaon ki tughyani mein hai

ho gai aadam se ye kaisi KHata jis ke ewaz
nasl-e-adam aaj tak aisi pashemani mein hai

koi surat jab na ban pai to rona aa gaya
kuchh to taskin-e-gham-e-dil ashk-afshani mein hai

gar mile KHud mein samo len sare insanon ka dard
is qadar wusat hamari tang-damani mein hai
