Na ji bhar ke dekha na kuchh baat ki... Badi aarzu thi mulaqat ki... Ujalon ki pariyan nahane lagin... Nadi gungunai khayalat ki... Main chup tha to chalti hava ruk gai... zaban sab samajhte hain jazbat ki... Muqaddar meri chashm-e-pur-ab ka... Barasti hui raat barsat ki... Kai saal se kuchh ḳhabar hi nahin... Kahan din guzara kahan raat ki... SOURCE : Book: Aasman (Pg. 75) Author: Bashir Badar Publication
