bas ab tark-e-talluq ke bahut pahlu nikalte hain
so ab ye tai hua hai shahr se sadhu nikalte hain

hum aa nikle ajab se ek sahra-e-mohabbat mein
shikari ke taaqub mein yahan aahu nikalte hain

ye ek manzar bahut hai umr bhar hairan rahne ko
ki mitti ke masamon se bhi rang-o-bu nikalte hain

zamir-e-sang tujh ko tera paikar-saz aa pahuncha
abhi aankhen ubharti hain abhi aansu nikalte hain

koi nadir khazina hai mere dast-e-tasarruf mein
jhapatne ko dar-o-diwar se bazu nikalte hain

main apne dushmanon ka kis qadar mamnun hun 'anwar'
ki un ke shar se kya kya khair ke pahlu nikalte hain
