diye bhi hon to pujari suraj ke sans kya lenge tirgi mein
kaho patangon se raqs kar len charagh ki dhimi raushni mein

muaf ai naz-e-rahnumai pahunch ke manzil pe bhi na pai
wo lazzat-e-khwab jo mayassar hui sar-e-rah-e-khastagi mein

wafa ko thodi si be-niyazi kam-iltifati ne teri de di
ab aur kya chahiye khudi ko teri mohabbat ki be-khudi mein

chhupi na jab khak-e-astan se chhupegi kya chashm-e-nukta-dan se
wo ek shikan jo zara si ubhri jabin-e-majbur-e-bandagi se

idhar andhere ki lanten hain udhar ujale ki zahmaten hain
tere musafir lagaen bistar kahan pe sahra-e-zindagi mein

'jamil' hum uth ke gir pade aur guzar gaya karwan hamara
ghubar ki baat tak na puchhi musafiron ne rawa-rawi mein
