dil sang nahin hai ki sitamgar na bhar aata
karte na agar zabt to munh tak jigar aata

tu fatiha-khwani ko agar qabr par aata
marne se mere ghair ka matlab na bar aata

ai qais agar dasht mein tu rah par aata
sau bar tujhe naqa-e-laila nazar aata

takhsis na thi tur ki ai hazrat-e-musa
har sang mein wo nur-e-tajalli nazar aata

hoti chaman-ara-e-azal ki jo mashiyyat
apne shajar-e-ishq ka waqt-e-samar aata

be-kar na kar raat basar muntazari mein
aana use hota to wo ab tak 'asar' aata
