Tere reham-o-karam ki kya mai tareef karu
Sapne dikha ke jhagjhod deta hai
Phir veham ki kyun mai zehmat karu
Mohabbat basti hai yahan nazaaro mein
Shauq bikta hai yahan bazaaro mein
Kaid ummedo ke liye tune aasha ka dargah khola
Banjaaro se imaan ko tuney kaagaz mein tola
Har granth mein likhi hai tere naam ki qasida
Unhe padhne waalo ke naam ke sunte hai marsia
Kabhi jannat se khoobsoorat lagti yeh kainnaat hai
Par khawabo ka kya, na din hai na raat hai
Shams-o-qamar ke manid teri aagosh hai
Par teri moorat ki tarah teri aankhe bhi khamosh hai
Har nazm mein dhoonde aashiqo ne teri chhavi
Tere dard mein kabhi ghazal nikla kabhi mansavi
Har wazifa mein chupa hai naam mere yaar ka
Kabhi to fariyaad sunley iss dil-e-bimaar ka
Khwabo ko haqeeqat mein badalna hi meri justujoo hai
Jab tak aawaaz hai bas yehi meri guftugoo hai
Kyun rooth gaya tu mere ku-karmo se
Tu khuda hai to kya
Teri parchaayi bhi banti hai kaalikh se
