aansu miri aankhon mein hain naale mire lab par — Bekhud Badayuni

gardish-e-bakht se baDhti hi chali jaati hain
miri dil-bastagiyaan zulf-e-girah-gir ke saath

shikva sun kar jo mizaaj-e-but-e-bad-khu badlaa
ham ne bhi saath hi taqrir kaa pahlu badlaa

khuun ho jaaein khaak mein mil jaaein
hazrat-e-dil se kuchh baiid nahin

vo un kaa vasl mein ye kah ke muskuraa denaa
tulu-e-subh se pahle hamein jagaa denaa

vo jo kar rahe hain bajaa kar rahe hain
ye jo ho rahaa hai bajaa ho rahaa hai

apni khu-e-vafaa se Dartaa huun
aashiqi bandagi na ho jaae

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

ik sadma-e-mohabbat ik sadma-e-judaai
ginti ke do hain lekin laakhon ki jaan par hain

ye saal tul-e-masaafat se chuur chuur gayaa
ye ek saal to guzraa hai ik sadi ki tarah

kisi ki yaad manaane mein iid guzregi
so shahr-e-dil mein bahut duur tak udaasi hai
