haqiqaton ka pata de ke khud sarab hua
wo mujh ko hosh mein la kar khayal-o-khwab hua

wo apne lams se patthar bana gaya mujh ko
visal us ka mujhe surat-e-azab hua

saron pe sab ke padi hadson ki dhup magar
koi sarab bana aur koi sahab hua

azab sab ke mere jism-o-jaan pe naqsh hue
mera wajud mere ahd ki kitab hua

sukut-e-shahr-e-sitam se asir-e-yas na ho
ki yan sakun se hua jo bhi inqalab hua

wahi to ek hamara mizaj-dan tha 'razi'
jo hum se dur raha aur na dastiyab hua
