Dekha Jo Saya Shab Mein Ye Samjha Nigah Ne
dekha jo saya shab mein ye samjha nigah ne
shayad wo aaj aa gae wada nibahane
viran si is nawah mein aata hi kaun tha
aabaad kar diya hai ise qatl-gah ne
un qatilon pe kaun muqadma chalaega
jin ko liya panah mein aalam-panah ne
har baat pe jo mujh se ye kahte hain chup raho
kya apne husn ko bhi na denge sarahne
qaem unhin faqiron ke dam se thi saltanat
jin ko kiya hai mulk-badar sarbarah ne
achchha hua sahar ne ulaT di naqab-e-fikr
bhaTka diya tha raat mujhe wah wah ne
kaghaz agar siyah karen to karen harif
suraj ugae hain meri fikr-o-nigah ne
