kuchh is tarah se nazar se guzar gayaa ko_ii 
ki dil ko Gam kaa sazaavaar kar gayaa ko_ii 

dil-sitam-zadaa ko jaise kuchh huaa hii nahii.n 
Khud apane husn se yuu.N beKhabar gayaa ko_ii 

nigaah-e-shauq kii maharuumiyo.n se naavaaqif 
nigaah-e-shauq pe ilzaam dhar gayaa ko_ii 

ab unake husn me.n husn-e-nazar bhii shaamil hai 
kuchh aur merii nazar se sa.Nvar gayaa ko_ii 

kisii ke paa.Nv kii aahaT, ki dil kii dha.Dakan thii 
hazaar baar uThaa suu-e-dar gayaa ko_ii 

nasiib-e-ahal-e-vafaa ye sukuun-e-dil to na thaa 
zaruur naalaa-e-dil be-asar gayaa ko_ii
