mahakte lafzon mein shamil hai rang-o-bu kis ki
ye mere sheron mein hoti hai guftugu kis ki

wo dil ki aag to yarab kabhi ki sard hui
magar in aankhon ko ab bhi hai justuju kis ki

mera wajud to ab tak sahi salamat hai
hawa mein khak ye udti hai ku-ba-ku kis ki

agar wo laut ke aaya nahin to batlana
ye khushbu phaili hai aangan mein chaar su kis ki

tu apne aap se bezar to nahin 'faruq'
tere mizaj mein aakhir ye aai khu kis ki
