dard ki lazzat se na-waqif khushbu se manus na tha
mere ghar ki mitti se wo shakhs bahut begana tha

tare chunte chunte jis ne phul nazar-andaz kiye
khwab kise malum nahin hain lams kise mahbub nahin

lekin jo tabir na jaane us ko ungh bhi lena aib
raat ki qimat hijr mein samjhi jis ne aansu nur bane

zakhm se uthne wali tisen os ki thandak piti hain
aaj na puchho dukhne lagi hai surme se kyun us ki aankh

jis ko sunahre din ka suraj kirnen bantne aata tha
patthar aakhir patthar hoga surma ho ya tara ho
