araish-e-khayal bhi ho dilkusha bhi ho
wo dard ab kahan jise ji chahta bhi ho

ye kya k roz ek sa gam ek si ummid
is ranj-e-bekhumar ki ab inteha bhi ho

ye kya k ek taur se guzre tamam umr
ji chahta hai ab koi tere siwa bhi ho

tute kabhi to khwab-e-shab-o-roz ka tilism
itne hujum main koi chehra naya bhi ho

diwangi-e-shauq ko ye dhun hai in dinon
ghar bhi ho aur be-dar-o-diwar sa bhi ho

juz dil koi makan nahi dahar main jahan
rahzan ka khauf bhi na rahe dar khula bhi ho

har zarra ek mahmil-e-ibrat hai dasht ka
lekin kise dikhaun koi dekhta bhi ho

har shay pukarti hai pas-e-parda-e-sukut
lekin kise sunaun koi hamnawa bhi ho

fursat main sun shaguftagi-e-guncha ki sada
ye wo sukhan nahi jo kisi ne kaha bhi ho

baitha hai ek shakhs mere pas der se
koi bhala-sa ho to hamain dekhta bhi ho

bazm-e-sukhan bhi ho sukhan-e-garm k liye
taus bolta ho to jangal hara bhi ho
