jo faqiri mein 'mir' hote hain
kitne raushan-zamir hote hain

dard jab tak dawa na ho jae
qais majnun na hir hote hain

aql se bhi kabhi kabhi dil ke
faisle na-guzir hote hain

sirf kirdar ki tajalli se
dil nasihat-pazir hote hain

apna khud ehtisab kar rakhna
log munkir-nakir hote hain

karb kitna hai jaaniye sahab
ashk dil ke safir hote hain

jab koi aasra nahin hota
hausle dastgir hote hain

yaad hai wo nahin wafa-pesha
log phir bhi asir hote hain

un ke adna ghulam bhi 'bazmi'
rashk-e-shah-o-wazir hote hain
