Phailae jab dam hawas ne rasm-e-mohabbat aam hui

phailae jab dam hawas ne rasm-e-mohabbat aam hui
past hua mear wafa ka ek duniya badnam hui

dil ne kaam liya aankhon se KHamoshi paigham hui
jalwon ki kasrat ke aage tab-e-nazar nakaam hui

dekhe hain dastur nirale hum ne wadi-e-ulfat mein
rahen jab aasan huin to sai-e-talab nakaam hui

chalti hain kis ki tadbiren khel hain sab taqdiron ke
sham kisi ki subh mein badli subh kisi ki sham hui

mahfil mahfil baaten niklin kya kya charche aam hue
tera ada-e-kam-amezi kis had tak badnam hui

awwal awwal wahm-e-dawa ne lutf-e-sukun barbaad kiya
aaKHir aaKHir dard ki daulat ulfat ka inam hui

mahw hua didar talab dil aisa un ke jalwon mein
goya mil kar bhi milne ki baat barae-nam hui

kya jaane kyun dil ne teri yaad ka daman tham liya
majburi aaghaz hui jab nakaami anjam hui

kya kahiye kis kis ki nazar ne bad-zauqi ko aam kiya
un ki nazron ke hote kyun duniya gharq-e-jam hui

fikr-e-gham-o-alam 'rishi' hai goya nam judai ka
un ki mahfil mein kab dil ko fikr-e-gham-o-alam hui
