juz tere ko_ii bhii din raat na jaane mere
tuu kahaa.N hai magar ai dost puraane mere
tuu bhii Khushbuu hai magar meraa tajassus bekaar
barq-e-aavaaraa kii maanind hain Thikhaane mere
shamaa ki lau thii ke vo tuu thaa magar hijr kii raat
der tak rotaa rahaa ko_ii sirhaane mere
Khalq kii beKhabarii hai ke merii rusavaa_ii
log mujh ko hii sunaate hain fasaane mere
luT ke bhii Khush huu.N ke ashko.n se bharaa hai daaman
dekh Gaarat_gare dil ye bhii Khazaane mere
aaj ik aur baras biit gayaa us ke baGair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamaane mere
kaash tuu bhii merii aavaaz sunataa ho
phir pukaare hai tujhe dil kii sadaa ne mere
kaash tuu bhii kabhii aajaaye masiihaa_ii ko
log aate hain bahut dil ko dukhaane mere
kaash auro.n kii tarah main bhii kah sakataa
baat sun lii hai merii aaj Khudaa ne mere
tuu hai kis haal main ai zuud_faraamosh mere
mujh ko to chhiin liyaa ahad-e-vafaa ne mere
chaaraagar yuu.N to bahut hain magar ai jaan-e-'Faraz'
juz tere aur ko_ii Gam na jaane mere </pre>
