dil azada rao mai woh tammna thi bayabaa ki qadum rakhtey hi

dil azada rao mai woh tammna thi bayabaa ki
qadum rakhtey hi shak honay lagi dewar-e-randaa ki

zameen say asmaan tak zarha zarha raks karta hai
shuaaien per rahi hain aftaab-e-roey janaa ki

yeh sabit kar dia tujh ko bana kar dast-e-kudrat nay
kay ho sakti hain itni khubiyaan surat main insaa ki

yeh alam kia hai? eik majmoaa hai nacheez zaroon ka
yeh duniya kia hai? eik tarkeeb ajzaa-e-perayshaa ki

tapak pertey hain jin kay ashk berbaadi kay qisoon per
khaber ho jaye kash in ko meray haal-e-perayshaa ki

humari zindagi kia? silsila dil kay dharkhney ka
humari mouat kia? jumbish hai eik jazbaat-e-punhaa ki
