mushkil us kuche se uthna ho gaya
hashr bhi naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa ho gaya

dekh waiz mujh ko main kya ho gaya
aadmi tha pi farishta ho gaya

aur hi wadi wo hai ai ahl-e-tur
qais jis mein ja ke laila ho gaya

shakh mein jab tak ye hai angur hai
shaikh ne toda ki mina ho gaya

tum ko samjha hur tera gor mein
ai farishto mujh ko dhoka ho gaya

munh jo kabe mein khula waqt-e-azan
band naqus-e-kalisa ho gaya

mai-kada waiz se ab chhutta nahin
baad-e-paima baada-paima ho gaya

ai buto allah ko saunpa tumhein
but-kada sunta hun kaba ho gaya

bagh tak jate bhi hain aate bhi hain
ab qafas to ghar hamara ho gaya

aaega pine-pilane ka maza
parsa ab baada-paima ho gaya

maut aai aap ka munh dekh kar
aap ka bimar achchha ho gaya

dub jaen tare wo tufan kahan
ashk to aankhon ka tara ho gaya

rang badla kya zamane ne 'riyaz'
dekhte hi dekhte kya ho gaya
