bhugat raha hun khud apne kiye ka khamyaza
tapak raha hai jo aankhon se ye lahu taza
kisi ki yaad ke sae ko ham-safar samjha
laga sako to laga lo junun ka andaza
kise majal ki ab mere dil mein ghar kar le
hai garche ab bhi khula apne dil ka darwaza
nigar-e-waqt ne har-su kamand dali hai
bikhar na jae kahin anjuman ka shiraaza
khuda gawah hai un ko bhi de raha hun dua
jo kaste rahte hain 'shakir' pe roz aawaza
