andaz-e-numu kaisa alamnak nikala
paiwand-e-badan mera sar-e-khak nikala

us ne dil-e-be-kaif ko bimar samajh kar
darman ke liye nashtar-e-saffak nikala

imkan ki godi ke pale zehn-e-rasa ne
ek sabza miyan-e-khas-o-khashak nikala

sahra ki tapish pyas ki shiddat thi ki us ne
bhula hua ek qissa-e-namnak nikala

afsos salatin chuka pae na qimat
sine se jo hum ne dur-e-aflak nikala
