Soz e ghum dai k mujhe us ne ye irshad kya

Soz e ghum dai k mujhe us ne ye irshad kya
jaa tujhe kashmakash e dehar se aazad kya

Wo karen bhi to to kin alfaaz mein tera shikwah
jin ko teri nigaa e lutf ne barbaad kya
...
Dil ko chooton ne kabhi chain se rehne na dya
jab chali sard hawa maine tujhe yaad kya

Ab main saw jaan se is tarz e takallum k nisaar
phir to farmaiye kya aap ne irshaad kya

Is ka roona nahi kyon tum ne kya dil barbaad kya
is ka ghum hai k bohat dair mein barbaad kya

Itna maanos hoon fitrat se kali jab bhi khili
jhuk k maine kaha mujh se kuch irshaad kya

Mujh ko to hosh nahi tum ko khabar ho shayad
log kehte hain k tum ne mujhe barbaad kya
