Mere dil ki rakh kured mat ese muskura k hwa na de
ye chiragh phir bhi chiragh hai kaheen tera hath jala na de

main udasiyan na saja sakun kabhi jismo jan k mazar par
na diye jalen meri aankh me mujhe itni sakht saza na de

naye daur k naye khwab hain naye mausamon k gulab hain
ye muhabbaton k chiragh hain unheen nafraton ki hwa na de

zara dekh chaand ki pattiyon nebikhar bikhar k tmtm shab
tera naam likha hai ret par koi lahar aake mita na de

yahan log rahte hain rat din kisi maslehat ki naqab me
ye teri nigah ki sadgi kaheen dil ke raaz bata na de

yunheen dil jalane k shouq me kai log jan se ghuzar gaye
tera nak naqsha hai mom k kaheen gham ki aag ghula na de

main ghazal ki shabnami aankh se ye dukhon k phool chuna karun
meri saltanat mera fan rahe,mujhe tajo takht khuda na de!
