aa chaa.Ndanii bhii merii tarah jaag rahii hai
palako.n pe sitaaro.n ko liye raat kha.Dii hai

ye baat ki suurat ke bhale dil ke bure ho.n
allaah kare jhuuTh ho bahuto.n se suunii hai

vo maathe kaa matalaa ho ki ho.nTho.n ke do misare
bachapan kii Gazal hii merii mahabuub rahii hai

Gazalo.n ne vahii.n zulfo.n ke phailaa diye saaye
jin raaho.n pe dekhaa hai bahut dhuup ka.Dii hai

ham dillii bhii ho aaye hai.n laahaur bhii ghume
ai yaar magar terii galii terii galii hai

[laahaur  = Lahore]
