jo mujh mein chhupa mera gala ghont raha hai
ya wo koi iblis hai ya mera khuda hai

jab sar mein nahin ishq to chehre pe chamak hai
ye nakhl khizan aai to shadab hua hai

kya mera ziyan hai jo muqabil tere aa jaun
ye amr to malum ki tu mujh se bada hai

main banda-o-nachaar ki sairab na ho paun
ai zahir-o-maujud mera jism dua hai

han us ke taaqub se mere dil mein hai inkar
wo shakhs kisi ko na milega na mila hai

kyun nur-e-abad dil mein guzar kar nahin pata
sine ki siyahi se naya harf likha hai
