daere par hi kahin hun koi manqut-e-wajud
gumbad-e-nili ka main nuqta-e-parkar nahin

main zamin par to muqayyad hun magar dam mein hai dam
aasman bhi to makan hai pa hawa-dar nahin

ab tere baad kise dekhun koi hai to bata
ab koi zulf-e-tarah-dar tarah-dar nahin

warna sahra se bada shahr na hota koi
fitrat-e-reg mein afraazi-e-diwar nahin

main tere husn ki qimat to lagane se raha
ye mera dil hai koi misr ka bazar nahin

aasman par hai zamin arsh ki manind muqim
aur us arsh pe juz ahmad-e-mukhtar nahin

us ke aane se kahin dur chale jate hain
sach kahun chand se taron ko zara pyar nahin

sunnat-e-hijrat-e-yasrab pe bhi chalta lekin
ghaar har rah mein maujud hai par yar nahin
