haqir khak ke zarre the aasman hue
wo log jo dar-e-jaanan ke pasban hue

shuda-shuda wahi gulshan ke hukmaran hue
jo khar pi ke gulon ka lahu jawan hue

hum aise ahl-e-junun par hanse na kyun duniya
ki sar kata ke samajhte hain kaamran hue

ye kam nahin ki bujhai hai pyas kanton ki
bala se rah-e-wafa mein lahuluhan hue

gulon ne aabla-pai ki koi dad na di
chaman mein khar hi chhaalon ke mezban hue

kiya jo bhul ke dil ne khayal-e-tark-e-wafa
hum apne aap se kya kya na bad-guman hue
