jab sham hui main ne qadam ghar se nikala
duba hua khurshid samundar se nikala

har-chand ki is rah mein tahi-dast rahe hum
sauda-e-mohabbat na magar sar se nikala

jab chand numudar hua dur ufuq par
hum ne bhi pari-zad ko patthar se nikala

dahka tha chaman aur dam-e-subh kisi ne
ek aur hi mafhum gul-e-tar se nikala

us mard-e-shafaq-fam ne ek ism padha aur
shahzadi ko diwar ke andar se nikala
