ishq ke is safar ne to mujhko nidhaal kar diyaa
usne magar bichharte vaqt aur savaal kar diyaa
ahl-e-kitaab ne magar kyaa teraa haal kar diyaa
baanu-e-shab ke haath meN rakhnaa sambhaal kar diyaa
hamne to ek baat kii usne kamaal kar diyaa
shah’r ke shah’r ko meraa vaaqif-e-haal kar diyaa
vaqt ne kis shabiih ko Khvaab-o-Khyaal kar diyaa
mansab-e-dilbarii pe kyaa mujhko bahaal kar diyaa
