kya KHabar thi raaz-e-dil apna aya.n ho jaega
kya KHabar thi aah ka shola zaba.n ho jaega
hashr hone de sitamgar hum dikha denge tujhe
pyara pyara ye gareba.n ungliya.n ho jaega
raat bhar ki hain bahaare.n shama kya parwana kya
subh hote hote ruKHsat karwa.n ho jaega
hashr mei.n insaf hoga bas yahi sunte raho
kuchh yaha.n hota raha hai kuchh waha.n ho jaega
is ko kahte hai.n jaha.n mei.n log sachchi ulfate.n
tir jab dil se khichega to kama.n ho jaega
aaDi sidhi paDti hai.n nazre.n tumhi.n par aaj to
majma-e-tar-e-nazar kya baddhiya.n ho jaega
hai yahi rang-e-suKHan to 'shair' shiri.n-zaba.n
tu bhi ek din tuti-e-hindusta.n ho jaega
