Kab dil ko ham ne waqf-e-tamanna na kiya tha
Tab se kiya tha jab shroo chalna na kiya tha
Jaise kiya he haalat-e-dil ko mere bai kul
Ye haal tu ne ishq kisi ka na kiya tha
Ham ko Tu khud kalamiyoo.N se kam sanam tha
Rasta sukhan ka aap se jab wa na kiya tha
Be kaif he the zindagi majnoo.N ki qasam se
Jab tak ke khud ko aashiq-e-laila na kiya tha
Yousuf ke husn ka koi chracha na hua tha
Jab tak ke aam haal-e-zlaikha na kiya tha
Jab tak tumhare husn ka fitna na utha tha
Tab tak khuda ne hashr ka waada na kiya tha
