hasil us mah-laqa ki did nahin
id hai aur hum ko id nahin

chhed dekho ki khat to likkha hai
mere khat ki magar rasid nahin

jaante hon umid-war mujhe
un se ye bhi mujhe umid nahin

yun taraste hain mai ko goya hum
pir-e-mai-khana ke murid nahin

khun ho jaen khak mein mil jaen
hazrat-e-dil se kuchh baid nahin

aao mere mazar par bhi kabhi
kushta-e-naz kya shahid nahin

hum to mayus hain magar 'bekhud'
dil-e-na-fahm na-umid nahin
