azan-e-fajr ke aahang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai
koi mujh se khuda ke rang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai

sawad-e-shahr mein utri hui hai sham-e-girya
hawa to lahja-e-gul-rang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai

main lab-basta khada hun be-samaat to nahin hun
samay mujh se zaban-e-sang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai

ghazal se main nai farhang mein mahw-e-sukhan hun
ghazal mujh se nai farhang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai

mere andar payambar amn ka rahta hai 'shaukat'
wahi duniya ke shor-e-jang mein mahw-e-sukhan hai
