did-e-duniya habab ki si hai
us ki tabir khwab ki si hai

saqiya mai kahan hai shishe mein
raushni aaftab ki si hai

pairahan mein numud tan se tere
halki ek tah shahab ki si hai

kis ka wasf dahan kiya tha ki aaj
munh mein khushbu gulab ki si hai

haalat ab dil ki hijr mein 'maruf'
ek shahr-e-kharab ki si hai
