Ghum-e-hijr se na dil ko kabhi hum-kinaar karna,

Ghum-e-hijr se na dil ko kabhi hum-kinaar karna,
main phir aaunga palat kar mera intezaar karna.

Mujhe dar hai mere aansoo teri aankh se na jhalken,
zara soch kar samajh kar mujhe sogwaar karna.

Usey dhoond sab se pehle jo mila nahin hai tujh ko,
ye sitaare aasmaan ke kabhi phir shumaar karna.

Mere shehar ki fiza mein koi zehar bhar gaya hai,
tere husn par hai laazim usey khushgawaar karna.

Main uthaaungaa na ehsaan tere baad na-khuda ka,
mujhe tu ne hi duboya mujhe tu hi paar karna.

Mere badnaseeb saathi teri zindagi hi kya hai,
na kisi se dil lagaana na kisi se pyaar karna.

Kabhi iqtidaar bakhshe jo khuda ‘qateel tujh ko,
jo rawish hai qaatilon ki woh na ikhtiyaar karna. !!
