ghul si gai ruh mein udasi
ras aai na hum ko khud-shanasi

har mod pe be-kashish khadi hai
ek khush-badani o kam-libasi

lalach mein paron ke pair chhute
ab rakht-e-safar hai be-asasi

nafs-e-mazmun isi mein hai go
mazmun-e-nafas hai iqtibasi

aai bhi to kya nigar-e-tabir
odhe hue khwab ki rida si

jadu sa alam ka kar gai 'saz'
un aankhon ki multafit udasi
