is tarah hajat-e-asir na khinch
bhik de kasa-e-faqir na khinch

rahm kar kuchh to dast-e-majburi
jaan le le magar zamir na khinch

ye kahani badi munafiq hai
is mein yunhi mera sharir na khinch

daere shauq se bana lekin
ab koi khun ki lakir na khinch

lafz wapas bhi laut sakte hain
apne lahje mein koi tir na khinch

apna uslub ban sake to bana
sher mein 'ghaalib' aur 'mir' na khinch

aane wale suragh chahte hain
ai hawa naqsh-e-rahgir na khinch

ye sharafat bhi ek rassi hai
tut jaegi mere wir na khinch
