dil ke nagar mein chaar taraf jab gham ki duhai baith gai
sar pe hamare dast-e-qaza se tegh-e-judai baith gai

hum hain faqir allah ke yaro phir is ka hai parekha kya
gar hum pas bhi aa kar koi bahni mai baith gai

sun ke ada-e-gham ki tere sabr-o-shakeb hain bhagne par
panw thaharne mushkil hain jab dhak parai baith gai

ai dil us bankit se hargiz shughl na kar tu lakdi ka
hath qalam hai phir tera gar ek bhi ghai baith gai

tegh-e-jafa li myan se apne jab us jaan ke dushman ne
sar ko jhuka kar apne apne, sari khudai baith gai

'mushafi' kya puchhe hai diwane haal safa-e-dil ka mere
tha to ye aaina raushan par ab kai baith gai
