main us pari ka agar muddaa nahin samjha
samajh mein kya nahin aaya main kya nahin samjha

yahi bahut hai ki is bar bhi main dushman ko
bura samajhte hue bhi bura nahin samjha

wo manta hai mere ikhtilaf ke haq ko
use bithaya hai sar par khuda nahin samjha

charagh-o-aina hairan kyun nahin honge
ki main sabahat-e-gul ki ada nahin samjha

kisi bikharte hue khwab ke taaqub mein
nikal pada hun magar rasta nahin samjha

bahut se ranj sahe apni jaan par lekin
tere wajud ko khud se juda nahin samjha

hazar main ne har ek chiz ki wazahat ki
magar wo shakhs mera masala nahin samjha

usi ne aag lagai thi mere hathon ko
jise main bhul se barg-e-hina nahin samjha

kisi ki udti hui nind ki haqiqat ko
nagar mein koi bhi mere siwa nahin samjha

khada hua tha kahin baam-e-arsh par 'sajid'
magar zamin ko tahtus-sura nahin samjha
