fasurda-dil hai nazron ki pareshani nahin jati
ki ab taswir meri mujh se pahchani nahin jati

tumhaari hi gali mein umr kat jae to behtar hai
ki mujh se dar-ba-dar ki khak ab chhani nahin jati

ghulami ne tumhaari wo ata ki hai mujhe azmat
ki shahi mein bhi dil se khu-e-darbani nahin jati

kahin lakhon ka gumbad hai ba-shakl-e-saeban sar par
kahin ek chadar-e-bosida jo tani nahin jati

payam-e-marg dete hain hazaron hadse phir bhi
hamari qaum ki 'sahil' tan-asani nahin jati
