tere iltifat ki baat thi teri be-rukhi ke gile na the
tujhe shayad us ki khabar to ho ki hamare hont sile na the

kisi ahl-e-dard se pochhiye zara is chaman ka moamla
wo chaman ki fasl-e-bahaar mein bhi jahan pe phul khile na the

ye rah-e-talab ki masafaten kahin khar hai kahin dar hai
sar-e-ku-e-yar khade the yun ki qadam hamare hile na the

bhala arz-e-gham se guzar ke bhi kabhi tum se koi gila kiya
ye junun-e-ishq ke tazkire to meri wafa ke sile na the

jo adu ko bazm hui to kya wo kuchh is tarah hain gurez-pa
kisi rah mein kisi mod par kabhi jaise hum se mile na the
