hum taghaful ko ibtida samjhe
aur wo dard ki dawa samjhe

wo to begangi mein the goya
aur hum un ko aashna samjhe

shorish-e-dil ne jo kaha hum se
is ko hum hukm aap ka samjhe

un se qaem hua hai naqsh-e-wafa
koi un ko na bewafa samjhe

aashna-e-murad-e-sahil hai
wo jo tufan ko nakhuda samjhe

kal sar-e-bazm in ishaaron se
kahiye 'khurshid' aap kya samjhe
