Siyahkar siyah-ru KHata-shiar aaya

siyahkar siyah-ru KHata-shiar aaya
teri janab mein tera gunahgar aaya

KHizan ka daur gaya mausam-e-bahaar aaya
magar na us dil-e-be-sabr ko qarar aaya

kahin jawab na tu ne diya yahan ke siwa
jahan mein yun to bahut main tujhe pukar aaya

sara-e-dahr mein chhoDa tan-e-kasif apna
ye bojh sar se musafir tera utar aaya

hamare nala-e-dil ka na pochhiye ahwal
gali se yar ki himmat bhi ab ke haar aaya

paDi jo qais ke upar nazar bayaban mein
mujhe gharib ke upar ghazab ka pyar aaya

na apne panw se aana mila gali mein teri
yahan bhi chaar ke kandhon pe main sawar aaya

ye iztirab hai kyun hai kidhar ka qasd ai ruh
kahan se aai talab kis jagah se tar aaya

meri na puchh ki teri gali mein KHak hun main
tujhi ko meri wafa ka na eatibar aaya

lahad ne khol ke aaghosh di jagah jo mujhe
lipaT ke rah gae hum ko bhi KHub pyar aaya

yaqin jaan le saqi ki KHum ki KHair nahin
KHuda na-karda jo ab ke mujhe KHumar aaya

mere nasib kahan is tarah ke dida-e-tar
sunun ye KHush-KHabari kan se ki yar aaya

tere firaq ke KHugar na mar miTe jab tak
qaza ke aane ka tab tak na eatibar aaya
