Unhi ko dhoond rahi hai nigha- e -shouk meri,
jo ban ke ajnabi mehfil mein aaye baithe hai
nighaein neeche kiye sir jhukaye baithe hai,
yehi tou hai jo mera dil churaye baithe hai,
jo raaj chhup nahi sakta churaye baithe hai,
bade hasin tassavvur mein kho gayi hoon main,
ki jaise woh mere pehlu mein aaye baithe hai….
