aahaten taza muqaddar ki taraf
aainon ke dhyan patthar ki taraf

waswase sina-sipar maujud se
wahime ki pusht khanjar ki taraf

shisha shisha khauf har chehre pe naqsh
ek nishana saikdon sar ki taraf

haal par dushman ki poshida-rukhi
aaina raushan sikandar ki taraf

muskura kar aabla-tan badh gae
khar ke surkhab bistar ki taraf

raushni bahar badi tezab hai
qatra qatra aankh manzar ki taraf

sarwari thi nok-e-pa-e-khaksar
ja padi dastar-e-khud-sar ki taraf
