ishq ki shama kare dil mein farozan koi
phir na ho tirgi-e-zist ka saman koi

lazzat-e-ishq se waqif jo ho nadan koi
dur dil se na kare phir gham-e-jaanan koi

raha mahrum shahadat se bhi main wae-nasib
zabh karne ko gaya bhul rag-e-jaan koi

rah ke duniya mein rahen dur hum us se kyunkar
apne sathi se juda hota hai insan koi

chain se soya wahi dur jo duniya se raha
dekh le ja ke zara shahr-e-khamoshan koi

ek qatra bhi nahin khun ka baqi 'jauhar'
kaise dekhe bhari aankhon ko gul-afshan koi
