ai kash na hota ye asar aah-e-rasa mein
ek barhami aati hai nazar zulf-e-dota mein

dakhil jo hua halqa-e-taslim-o-raza mein
pata nahin wo farq saza aur jaza mein

us anjuman-e-naz mein kya kaam qaza ka
hun saikdon andaz jahan ek ada mein

mearaj-e-mohabbat mein huin lazim-o-malzum
hai ek kashish meri wafa teri jafa mein

sabit ye hua dard-e-mohabbat ke asar se
tasir dua mein hai na tasir dawa mein

dil jhukte hain aise ki kabhi sar nahin uthte
ushshaq ne kuchh paya hai naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa mein

ek uqda hai jo khul nahin sakta hai kisi se
ye kis ne girah dali tere band-e-qaba mein

'bekhud' ka nishan puchhte ho qafile walo
ek gard si udti hui dekha hai hawa mein
