Karam ka aur hai imkan khule to baat chale

karam ka aur hai imkan khule to baat chale
is iltifat ka unwan khule to baat chale

kis intizar mein thi ruh-e-KHud-numai-e-gul
baras ke abr-e-bahaaran khule to baat chale

kuchh ab ke hum bhi kahen us ki dastan-e-visal
magar wo zulf-e-pareshan khule to baat chale

jafa ye silsila-e-sad-hazar-unwan hai
qamis-e-yusuf-e-kanan khule to baat chale

safar hai aur sitaron ka ek bayaban hai
musafiri ka bhi imkan khule to baat chale

tilism-e-shewa-e-yaran khula to kuchh na hua
kabhi ye habs-e-dil-o-jaan khule to baat chale

sulag raha hai ufuq bujh rahi hai aatish-e-mahr
rumuz-e-rabt-e-gurezan khule to baat chale
