Sehra Mein Unki Yaad Ke Jab Hum Nikal Pade,
Ankhon Se Apni Ho Ke Rawaan Ashq Chal Pade,
Manzil Ka Rehguzar Ka To Kuch Ilm Bhi Nahin,
Leke Chala Koi Jidhar Us Simt Chal Pade,
Furqat Mein Koi Khinchta Hai Dil Ko Is Kadar,
Hanste Hue Hi Chaain Na Rone Se Kal Pade,
Ulfat Ka Unki Ankh Mein Qatra Na Tha Koii,
Jaane Meri Nazar Se Kyoon Chashme Ubal Pade,
Yaa Rab! Mujhe Deedar Ko Unke Woh Aankh De,
Jhapkoon Kabhi Na Deed Mein Meri Khalal Pade,
‘Shabnam’hum Apni Umr Ki Zulf-E-Daraz Ko,
Jitna Sanwarte Rahe Utne Hi Bal Pade.
