Na Sawaal-e-jaam Na Zikr-e-may Usi Baankpan Se Chale Gaye

Na sawaal-e-jaam na zikr-e-may usi baankpan se chale gaye,

Tera zarf dekh ke tishna-lab teri anjuman se chale gaye..

Kabhi tu ne socha bhi subah-e-nau ke tamaam raat guzaar ke,

Jinhein das gayi teri raushni wo kahaan watan se chale gaye..

Mujhe dhun ke kaakul-e-zindagi jo bikhar gayi hai sanwaar dun,

Tumhein ghum ke ishq ke tazkire mere sher-o-fan se chale gaye..

Tere gesuon se azeez thin jinhein kayenaat ki uljhanein,

Tera ghum samet ke rooh mein teri anjuman se chale gaye..

Mere dil ko 'Qaisar'-e-be-nawa koi ghum shikast na de saka,

Ke ulajh ke saikdon haadse mere baankpan se chale gaye.!!
