hamin par dhup barsata hai suraj bhi muqaddar bhi
darakht-e-mehrban koi kare saya to hum par bhi

ayan hoti chali jati hain sab chehre ki tahriren
hui jati hai na-kafi khamoshi ki ye chadar bhi

badan ki raushni mein jo na dekha ja saka hum se
usi shishe ke paikar mein dhadakta tha wo patthar bhi

haqiqat se tasawwur tak safar mujh mein kiya us ne
magar mujh tak nahin pahuncha wo itni dur chal kar bhi

koi musa-o-isa-o-mohammad ab na aaega
hamare na-tawan shanon pe hai kar-e-payambar bhi
