Kahan Bashaarat-e-fasl-e-bahaar Lai Thi

kahan bashaarat-e-fasl-e-bahaar lai thi

hawa to bagh ki izzat utar lai thi

gulon pe uDti hui titliyon se yaad aaya

teri talab mujhe dariya ke par lai thi

sada na phir mere be-jaan jism se nikli

hawa to us ko gupha tak pukar lai thi

tumhaare sae se arman sab nikale gae

visal-rut samar-e-intizar lai thi

wo koi KHas chamak DhunDhta raha 'zishan'

hamari aankh safar ka ghubar lai thi
