jaan di jis ke liye us ko khabar koi nahin
ab khula mujh par ki mar mitna hunar koi nahin

aa hi pahunchi ek dariche se shua-e-aftab
main ye samjha tha shab-e-gham ki sahar koi nahin

aaj kis ki jaan se kheloge ai chaaragaro
aaj pahlu mein mere zakhm-e-jigar koi nahin

zawiya-ha-e-nazar mein aah itna ikhtilaf
go teri tahrir mein zer-o-zabar koi nahin

sang-rezon se hua jata hai daman tar tar
jama-e-tahrir mein mere guhar koi nahin

baj uthi 'sabir' hawa ke zor se zanjir-e-dar
main ye samjha tha koi aaya magar koi nahin
