vo paas kya zaraa sa muskuraa ke baith gaya main is mazaaq ko dil se laga ke baith gaya darkhat kaat ke jab thak gaya lakadhara to ik darkhat ke saa.e men ja ke baith gaya

ab zaroori to nahin hai ki vo sab kuchh kah de dil men jo kuchh bhi ho aankhoñ se nazar aata hai main usse sirf ye kahtaa hoon ki ghar jaana hai aur vo maarnay marne pe utar aata hai

mazaa to tab hai ki tum haar ke bhi hanste raho hamesha jeet hi jaana kamaal thodii hai

ye jo main hosh men rehta nahin tumse mil kar ye mira ishq hai tum isko nasha mat samjho

laut kar nahin aata kabr se koi lekin pyaar karne waalon ko intzaar rehta hai

nahin is khulii fazaa men koii gosha-e-faraaghat ye jahaan ajab jahaan hai na qafs na aashiyana

dhoondhta firta hooñ main iqbaal apne aap ko aap hi goya musaafir aap hi manzil hooñ main

har ik maqaam se aage maqaam hai teraa hayaat zauq-e-safar ke siva kuchh aur nahin

ghulaami men na kaam aati hain shamshirein na tadbeerein jo ho zauq-e-yaqeen paida to kat jaati hain zanjeeren

baagh-e-behisht se mujhe hukm-e-safar diya tha kyun kaar-e-jahaan daraaz hai ab mira intizaar kar
