bastiyan chup jo huin bin bole
shahr-e-khamosh mein madfan bole

baghbani ka hai sab ko dawe
aa gaya waqt ki gulshan bole

nok-e-khanjar pe sada tulti hai
ab agar bol sake fan bole

dil pe hain naqsh wo teri baaten
jab zaban gung hui tan bole

koi pairaya-e-izhaar to ho
chup hain alfaz to dhadkan bole
