tere badan ki dhup se mahrum kab hua
lekin ye istiara bhi manzum kab hua

waqif kahan the raat ki sargoshiyon se hum
bistar ki silwaton se bhi malum kab hua

shakh-e-badan se sare parinde to ud gae
sajda tere khayal ka maqsum kab hua

sunsan jangalon mein hai maujudgi ki lau
lekin wo ek rasta madum kab hua

nisbat mujhe kahan rahi asr-e-zawal se
mera wajud saltanat-e-rum kab hua
