soz-e-Gam de mujhe usne ye irshaad kiyaa

soz-e-Gam de mujhe usne ye irshaad kiyaa
jaa tujhe kashmakash-e-dahar se aazaad kiyaa

vo kareN bhii to kin alfaaz meN teraa shikwa
jinko terii nigah-e-lutf ne barbaad kiyaa

itnaa maanuus huuN fitrat se kalii jab chaTkii
jhuk ke maiNne ye kahaa, ''mujhse se kuchh irshaad kiyaa?''

mujhko to hosh nahiiN, tum ko Khabar ho shaayad
log kahte haiN ki tumne mujhko barbaad kiyaa
