shauq-e-kharash-e-khar mere dil mein rah gaya
pa-e-talash pahli hi manzil mein rah gaya

main zamzama-sara to chaman se gaya wale
afsana ek giroh-e-anadil mein rah gaya

zanjir-e-mauj panw mein aa kar lipat gai
tufaniyon ka dhyan hi sahil mein rah gaya

taswir us ki kaise khinchi mani-e-khayal
hairan jis ki shakl-o-shamail mein rah gaya

kaam apna to tamam kiya yas ne 'hawas'
ji ishtiyaq-e-khanjar-e-qatil mein rah gaya
