aaina-e-khayal tha aks-pazir raaz ka
tur shahid ho gaya jalwa-e-dil-nawaz ka

paya bahut kiya buland us ne harim-e-naz ka
ta na pahunch sake ghubar-e-rah-guzar-e-niyaz ka

khastagi-e-kalim ne nukta ajab samjha diya
warna harif mein bhi tha is mizha-e-daraaz ka

dair mila tha rah mein kabe ko hum nikal gae
jazba-e-shauq mein dimagh kis ko ho imtiyaz ka

bandagi aur sahabi asl mein donon ek hain
jis ka ghulam ayaz hai wo hai ghulam ayaz ka

go tahi-nasib ne dur rakha to kya hua
banda-e-khana-zad hun us ke qad-e-daraaz ka

shauq tera hai maujzan zauq tera bahana-ju
khol na den bharam kahin parad gyan raaz ka

masti-e-be-khudi se yan aankh khuli na hashr tak
yani yahi jawab tha nargis-e-nim-baz ka

aah-o-fughan ke sath sath chha gai ek be-khudi
qat-e-zaban zarur tha sham-e-zaban-daraaz ka

khak mein mil gae wale aankh uthi na sharm se
hum se hua na haq ada us ki nigah-e-naz ka

mutrib-e-khuld kya sunae wahshat-e-khasta kya sune
mo'taqid-e-qadim hai zamzama hijaz ka
