Kya bataun ki hai kis zulf ka sauda mujhko

kya bataun ki hai kis zulf ka sauda mujh ko
dud-e-har-shama gareban nazar aaya mujh ko

chand jo ubhra shab-e-gham mere dil mein Duba
bhigti raat ne kuchh aur jalaya mujh ko

hae kya kya mujhe betab rakha hai us ne
yaad karne pe bhi jo yaad na aaya mujh ko

ab to sanson ke tamawwuj se bhi ji Darta hai
zindagi tu ne ye kis ghaT utara mujh ko

the meri pusht pe aqdar ke Dhalte suraj
ban gaya rah-numa apna hi saya mujh ko

rah be-samt hai uftad hai manzil apni
KHak-e-sahra hun uData hai bagula mujh ko

pahle diwar uThai thi ki KHud ko dekhun
ab yahan koi nahin dekhne wala mujh ko

le uDi mujh ko mere zehn ki KHushbu tausif
tu ne kya soch ke zanjir kiya tha mujh ko
