Sari jindgi kuch paloon mein simat gayi;
Main uski panahon mein moum ki tarhan pigaal gayi.
Chand jamen pe uttra mere pehloo mein;
Shama parvane ke saath khud be jal gayi.
Ek mukhtasar si mulakat itni yaadgar bani;
Zameen se utth kar main falak tak nikal gayi.
Jaan jaye ya rahe 'janu' ki gum nahin;
Meri hisse ki khusi mujh ko mil gayi.
