uTho ye manzar-e-shab-tab dekhne ke liye

badan mein jaise lahu taziyana ho gaya hai

mere hone mein kisi taur se shamil ho jao

shoala-e-ishq bujhana bhi nahin chahta hai

charagh dene lagega dhuan na chhu lena

badan ke donon kinaron se jal raha hun main

haq fath-yab mere KHuda kyun nahin hua

jaan se guzre bhi to dariya se guzarenge tumhein

wahshat ke sath dasht meri jaan chahiye

koi bijli in KHarabon mein ghaTa raushan kare

wo jo ek shart thi wahshat ki uTha di gai kya

sham-e-tanha ki tarah subh ke tare jaise

sar-e-taslim hai KHam izn-e-uqubat ke baghair

ajib nashsha hai hoshyar rahna chahta hun

ek tariqa ye bhi hai jab jina ek na-chaari ho

Dar se uski na irfan juda kar usko

jab ye aalam ho to likhiye lab-o-ruKHsar pe KHak

faqiri mein ye thoDi si tan-asani bhi karte hain

donon apne kaam ke mahir donon baDe zahin

pukarta hai magar dhyan mein nahin aata

badal gai hai faza nile aasmanon ki

sarhaden achchhi ki sarhad pe na rukna achchha

murawwaton pe wafa ka guman bhi rakhta tha

KHushbu ki tarah sath laga le gai hum ko

humse wo jaan-e-suKHan rabt-e-nawa chahti hai

hushyar hain to hum ko bahak jaana chahiye

zer-e-mehrab na baala-e-makan bolti hai

dar-o-diwar ki zad se nikalna chahta hun main

ab zaban KHanjar-e-qatil ki sana karti hai

zamin par shor-e-mahshar roz o shab hota hi rahta hai

qadam uThe to gali se gali nikalti rahi

bhul jaoge ki rahte the yahan dusre log

humse shayad hi kabhi uski shanasai ho

suKHan mein rang tumhaare KHayal hi ke to hain

zawal-e-shab mein kisi ki sada nikal aae

usne be-kar ye bahrup banaya hua hai

zehn ho tang to phir shoKHi-e-afkar na rakh

ab ke sahra mein ajab barish ki arzani hui

kahin to luTna hai phir naqd-e-jaan bachana kya

tum hamein ek din dasht mein chhoD kar chal diye the tumhein kya KHabar ya aKHi

wo un dinon to hamara tha lekin ab kya hai

ishq miyan is aag mein mera zahir hi chamka dena

mujhe bacha bhi liya chhoD kar chala bhi gaya

shahab-chehra koi gum-shuda sitara koi

ye to sahra hai yahan ThanDi hawa kab aaegi

us se bichhaD ke bab-e-hunar band kar diya

hoshiyari dil-e-nadan bahut karta hai

unhin ki shah se unhen mat karta rahta hun

khel sab aankhon ka hai sara hunar aankhon ka hai

kash main bhi kabhi yaron ka kaha man sakun
