ye khaki aag se ho kar yahan pe pahuncha hai
khamir utha tha jahan se wahan pe pahuncha hai

nigah-e-husn ne tartib ulti kar dali
ki tir nikla nazar se kaman pe pahuncha hai

abhi talak jo fida-e-ba-nam-e-ishq raha
jo hosh aaya to sud-o-ziyan pe pahuncha hai

main zahiran to sukhan se ba-khub waqif hun
darun ka aks agarche ziyan pe pahuncha hai

khizan-e-hijr mein gulshan mein phul khilne lage
gazand ye bhi dil-e-na-tawan pe pahuncha hai
