dil ka har ek dagh charaghan se kam nahin
meri khizan bhi fasl-e-bahaaran se kam nahin

is mein hai khun-e-dil ka samundar chhupa hua
aankhon mein ek ashk bhi tufan se kam nahin

yaadon mein hain gulab se chehre saje hue
shahr-e-khayal kucha-e-jaanan se kam nahin

hai khak par nashist falak par udan hai
meri zamin bhi takht-e-sulaiman se kam nahin

jine ka hausla bhi mayassar na ho jise
us ki sahar bhi sham-e-ghariban se kam nahin

nikle kisi ki yaad mein aansu jo aankh se
mere liye wo lal-e-badakhshan se kam nahin

aankhon ke samne hain manazir ajib se
ye jagna bhi khwab-e-pareshan se kam nahin

'shahid' firaq-e-yaad mein ye dil ka haal hai
viraniyon mein dasht-o-bayaban se kam nahin
