aisa nahin ki ek mera ghar udas hai
tere baghair jo bhi hai manzar udas hai

koi asar dikha na saka fan ka moajiza
apne buton ko dekh ke aazar udas hai

pahlu-e-sang mein bhi hai ek dard-mand dil
wahshi ke sar ko phod ke patthar udas hai

jis ne kiya tha qatl kisi be-gunah ka
apne kiye pe ab wahi khanjar udas hai

khamosh sath-e-ab hai maghmum hai faza
kashti ko gharq kar ke samundar udas hai

jis dil ke aaine mein nahin aks-e-ru-e-dost
us dil ke aaine ka muqaddar udas hai

saqi ki be-niyazi-e-paiham ko dekh kar
'jauhar' hayat-e-ishq ka saghar udas hai
