ai ishtiyaq-e-did bata aaj kya karen
un se nazar churaen ki hum samna karen

un se kaho ki farz-e-rifaqat ada karen
mere junun pe ahl-e-khirad tabsira karen

un doston ki hum pe inayat na puchhiye
wo waqt aa pada hai ki dushman dua karen

faiz-e-junun se dar ki manzil tak aa gae
ab apne qafile ka kise rahnuma karen

ahl-e-talab ba-zauq-e-talab rah-e-ishq mein
har intiha ke baad nai ibtida karen

kab tak main intizar karun daur-e-hijr mein
ummid ke charagh kahan tak jala karen

wo mere dil pe barq-e-tabassum gira chuke
ab un ko kya hazar fasane bana karen

phir kyon nigah-e-barq tawajjoh kare idhar
mauj-e-bahaar se jo nasheman jala karen

'shahid' hum aaj hazrat-e-naseh se puchh len
dil ka kaha karen ki tumhaara kaha karen
