ruk ja hujum-e-gul ki abhi hausla nahin
dil se khayal-e-tangi-e-daman gaya nahin

jo kuchh hain sang-o-khisht hain ya gard-e-rah-guzar
tum tak jo aae un ka koi naqsh-e-pa nahin

har aastan pe likhkha hai ab nam-e-shahr-yar
wabistagan-e-dil kai liye koi ja nahin

sad-haif us ke hath hai har zakhm ka rafu
daman mein jis ke ek bhi tar-e-wafa nahin
