be-waza shab-o-roz ki taswir dikha kar
ab dad na mango mujhe zanjir dikha kar

kaisi hain kaf-e-lauh pe be-rabt lakiren
mani na chhupao mujhe tahrir dikha kar

ai shisha-e-jaan tujh mein lahu khatm bhi hoga
ye nashsha utar jaega tasir dikha kar

main sham-e-shab-zulm hun aaghaz-e-sahar tak
dil bujhne laga subh ki tanwir dikha kar

kis shakh pe hai harf-e-gul-e-surkh dikhao
qail bhi karo lafz ki tafsir dikha kar

yun sehr-e-kashish ne kiya eajaz ka munkir
diwar-e-hawa par mujhe shahtir dikha kar

hai koh-kani bar-e-amanat abhi sar par
mat rok mujhe tesha-o-taqdir dikha kar

kahte ho ki khwahish ka samar tursh hai 'shahid'
aankhon ko ghalat khwab ki tabir dikha kar
