jaise ham-bazm hain phir yar-e-tarah-dar se hum
raat milte rahe apne dar-o-diwar se hum

sarkhushi mein yunhi dil-shad o ghazal-khwan guzre
ku-e-qatil se kabhi kucha-e-dildar se hum

kabhi manzil kabhi raste ne hamein sath diya
har qadam uljhe rahe qafila-salar se hum

hum se be-bahra hui ab jaras-e-gul ki sada
warna waqif the har ek rang ki jhankar se hum

'faiz' jab chaha jo kuchh chaha sada mang liya
hath phaila ke dil-e-be-zar-o-dinar se hum
