har dushman-e-wafa mujhe mahbub ho gaya
jo moajaza hua wo bahut khub ho gaya

ishq ek sidhi-sadi si mantiq ki baat hai
raghbat mujhe hui to wo marghub ho gaya

diwangi baghair hayat itni talkh thi
jo shakhs bhi zahin tha majzub ho gaya

mujrim tha jo wo apni zehanat se bach gaya
jis se khata na ki thi wo maslub ho gaya

wo khat jo us ke hath se purze hua 'adam'
duniya ka sab se qimti maktub ho gaya
