Ishq-e-butaan ka le ke sahaara kabhi kabhi,
Apne Khuda ko hum ne pukaara kabhi kabhi;
Aasooda-e-Khaatir hi naheen matmah-e-wafa,
Gham bhi kiya hai hum ne gawaara kabhi kabhi;
Is intehaa-e-tark-e-muhabbat ke ba-wajood,
Hum ne liya hai naam tumhaara kabhi kabhi;
Tufaan ka khauf hai abhi shayad karishma-kaar,
Aata hai samne jo kinaara kabhi kabhi,
Tanhaa-ravi ne rak’khi humaare junoon ki laaj,
Go ahl-e-kaarwan ne pukaara kabhi kabhi;
Ab kya kahein dil-e-mutalavvin-mizaaj ko,
Aksar ye aap ka hai,humaara kabhi kabhi;
Paiham sitam se ishq ki taskeen ho na jaaye,
Aye dost iltifaat Khudaa-ra kabhi kabhi;
Fariyaad-e-gham se ‘arsh’ sambhalta hai dil magar,
Lete hain ahl-e-dil ye sahaara kabhi kabhi..!!!
