dil ko har haal mein masruf-e-dua rakkha hai
main ne ye jurm bhi apne pe rawa rakkha hai

meri har sans rasulon ki zaban hai jaise
main ne har sans mein ek harf-e-wafa rakkha hai

aap to garmi-e-haalat se ghabraate hain
hum ne suraj ko bhi sine mein chhupa rakkha hai

aagahi garm-e-safar hai nai manzil ki taraf
chand ka zikr hi kya chand mein kya rakkha hai

hum ki haalat ki taswir batane wale
hum ko haalat ne taswir bana rakkha hai

zindagi se kaho ab koi taqaza na kare
main ne har gham ko kaleje se laga rakkha hai

jis jagah qafila-e-dard ruka tha 'khusraw'
dard-mandon ne wahin shahr basa rakkha hai
