Tumhaari bazm mein mahrum-e-jam hum bhi the

tumhaari bazm mein mahrum-e-jam hum bhi the
faqat raqib nahin tishna-kaam hum bhi the

faqih-e-shahr ne gumrah kar diya warna
sifat-shanas halal-o-haram hum bhi the

amama-band-o-qaba-poshgan ka zikr hi kya
tere huzur mein ba-ehtiram hum bhi the

shikasta-pai-e-mir-e-safar ka kya shikwa
ki rah-e-shauq mein kuchh sust-e-gam hum bhi the

teri jafaon ne aazad kar diya warna
teri adaon ke adna ghulam hum bhi the

nigah-e-KHas ne yak-laKHt kar diya zinda
wagarna kushta-e-dastur-e-am hum bhi the
