azab-e-jaan ko bhi imbisat samjha main
khuda ne gham bhi diye to nashat samjha mein

chala sanbhal ke kahin ja girun na dozakh mein
rah-e-hayat tujhe pul-siraat samjha main

utha jo zist ka mear gir gaya akhlaq
ghalat bhi kya hai agar inhitat samjha main

thi teri pahlu-tahi kab ba-wajh-e-ruswai
wo be-rukhi thi jise ehtiyat samjha main

kitab-e-haq ne dikhaya jo aaina 'arif'
main kya hun tab kahin apni bisat samjha main
