jo tere naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa pe chal gae hote
to mehr-o-mah se aage nikal gae hote

tumhaara nam labon par jo aa gaya hota
to girne wale yaqinan sanbhal gae hote

hum apne josh-e-junun ko jo zabt kar jate
to hadsat ke tewar badal gae hote

samajh saka na koi azmat-e-wafa warna
hamare khwab haqiqat mein dhal gae hote

hamari tishna-labi maslahat samajh warna
hamare waste shishe pighal gae hote

chaman ko khun-e-jigar kaun bakhshta 'nadim'
jo hum bhi jaanib-e-sahra nikal gae hote
