Sal-girah Ki Raat

waqt ki baat hai har ghuncha-e-sar-basta magar

waqt kya chiz hai paimana-e-be-saKHta hai

ye shab-o-roz jawani ye mah-o-sal rawan

ruh kyun jism ke aage siper-andaKHta hai

shaKH dar shaKH nazar aati hai jine ki umang

chor ki tarah sarakti hai ragon mein koi aag

sochne ke liye shayad ye mah-o-sal nahin

ai mere dida-e-be-KHwab mohabbat se na bhag

husn ki aag ghanimat hai ki is se pahle

rag-e-ayyam thi ek ju-e-fasurda sar-e-sham

sab isi aag ka indhan hain guzarne wale

ek hi larzish-e-sad-rang ka partaw hai tamam
