hai dua yad magar harf-e-dua yad nahin

hai dua yad magar harf-e-dua yad nahin

mere nagmat ko andaz-e-nawa yad nahin



main ne palkon se dar-e-yar pe dastak di hai

main wo sahil hun jise koi sada yad nahin



main ne jin k liye rahon mein bichaya tha lahu

ham se kahte hain wahi ahd-e-wafa yad nahin



kaise bhar ain sar-e-sham kisi ki ankhen

kaise tharrae charagon ki ziya yad nahin



sirf dhundhlai sitaron ki chamak dekhi hai

kab hua kaun hua kis se khafa yad nahin



zindagi jabr-e-musalasal ki tarah katti hai

jane kis jurm ki pai hai saza yad nahin



ao ik sajda karen alam-e-madhoshi mein

kahte hain k "Sagar" ko Khuda yad nahin
