Rootha to shaher-e-khwaab ko ghaarat bhi kar gaya

Rootha to shaher-e-khwaab ko ghaarat bhi kar gaya

Phir muskura kar taza shararat bhi kar gaya

Shayed ussay aziz thein aankhain meri bhout

Woh mere naam apni basaarat bhi kar gaya

Munh'zor aandiyon ki hathaili pe ek chragh

Paida mere lahoo main haraarat bhi kar gaya

Boseeda baad'baan ka tukra , hawa kay saath

Toofaan main kashtiyon ki sifaarat bhi kar gaya

Dil ka nagar ujaarnay wala hunar shanaas

Tameer hoslon ki imaarat bhi kar gaya

Sab ehal-e-shaher jis par utha'tay thay ungliyaan

Woh shaher bhar ko wajah-e-ziarat bhi dy gaya

Mohsin yeh dil keh us sy bicharta na tha kabhi

Aaj us ko bhoolnay ki jurrat bhi kar gaya
