Shab guzar na jaaye

Shab guzar na jaaye, hai intezaar-e-yaar ka
bas shauq hai hameiN to deedar-e-yaar ka
manzar judaaiyon ka dekha gaya na mujh se
chhut-ta nahiN hai daaman ab khyaal-e-yaar ka
gosha-e-tanhaai meiN tareeki har samat
deedaar hoga kaise tasveer-e-yaar ka
dar hai kaheeN chheen le akhtyaar-e-tassavur
tassavur hi hai sahaara dil-e-daagdaar ka
toofaan se to ladne meiN lutf hi aur hai
le kar sahaara beh chale visaal-e-yaar ka
dekha hai ek baargi jalva-e-husn-yaar
bhhoolega na nazaara kuchaa-e-yaar ka
gairoN ki baat ka aitbaar kya kareN
ab to bharosa na raha vafa-e-yaar ka
is ladkhadaati zindagani ke safar meiN
mil jaaye kisi mod par jalva-e-yaar ka
zindagi ki shaam par mil jaaye ek baar
rooh karegi shukria ahsaan-e-yaar ka
