bazm-e-sahba mein achanak shor barpa ho gaya
tut kar zahid ka chakna-chur taqwa ho gaya

gardish-e-dauran ke hathon ka khilauna ho gaya
sochta hun mujh ko kya hona tha main kya ho gaya

kasmapursi ka ye 'alam hai mashini daur mein
bhid mein rahte hue insan tanha ho gaya

waqt ke marham ne dikhlaya to tha apna asar
ek hichki mein hi sara khel ulta ho gaya

roz-e-awwal se zamin ne zahr ugla is qadar
pite-pite aasman ka rang nila ho gaya

aap ke qadmon ki khatir hi main laya tha magar
hath lagne se mera wo phul maila ho gaya

mudda'a la kar zaban par 'nazr' phir ruswa na ho
aaj tak to ye hua jo us ne chaha ho gaya
