ik teraa aasraa hai faqat ai khayaal-e-dost — Figar Unnavi

maayus dilon ko ab chheDo bhi to kyaa haasil
TuuTe hue paimaane fariyaad nahin karte

fazaa kaa tang honaa fitrat-e-aazaad se puchho
par-e-parvaaz hi kyaa jo qafas ko aashiyaan samjhe

dil hai miraa rangini-e-aaghaaz pe maail
nazron mein abhi jaam hai anjaam nahin hai

un pe qurbaan har khushi kar di
zindagi nazr-e-zindagi kar di

saaqi ne nigaahon se pilaa di hai ghazab ki
rindaan-e-azal dekhiye kab hosh mein aaein

partav-e-husn se zarre bhi bane aaine
kitne jalve kiye arzaan tiri raanaai ne

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

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

jo ghair the vo isi baat par hamaare hue
ki ham se dost bahut be-khabar hamaare hue

barseingi aaj rahmatein aamad hai yaar ki
naayaab hain ye ghaDiyaan tire intizaar ki

yaar bhi raah ki divaar samajhte hain mujhe
main samajhtaa thaa mire yaar samajhte hain mujhe

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi
