hum cheen lain gy tum sy yeh shan e be niyazi

Chaand ke saath kayi dard puraane nikle,

kitne ghum the jo tere ghum ke bahaane nikle.

Fasl-e gul aayi phir ik baar asiraan-e-wafa,

apne hi khoon ke dariya mein nahaane nikle.

Hijr ki chot ajab sang-shikan hoti hai,

dil ki befaiz zameenon se khazaane nikle.

Umar guzri hai shab-e-taar mein aankhein malte,

kis ufaaq se mera khursheed na jaane nikle.

Ku-e-qaatil mein chale jaise shaheedon ka juloos,

khwaab yun bheegti aankhon ko sajaane nikle.

Dil ne ek eent se taameer kiya taj-mahal,

tune ek baat kahi laakh fasaane nikle.

Dasht-e tanhaai-e-hijraan mein khada sochta hun,

haaye kya log mera saath nibhaane nikle.

Maine ‘amjad’ usey bewaasta dekha hi nahin,

woh toh khushboo mein bhi aahat ke bahaane nikle. !!
