khush-talai mein shams o qamar donon ek hain
din raat ka to farq hai par donon ek hain

khwahi mein roun lakht-e-jigar khwah ashk sirf
aankhon mein meri lal-o-gohar donon ek hain

dijur mein kise hai sapid o siyah ka farq
zindaniyon ko sham o sahar donon ek hain

kahne ko garche hath juda hain mere wale
hone ko us ka tauq o kamar donon ek hain

khwahi tu chashm-e-chup se dar aa khwah rast hai
aane ko ghar mein dil ke ye dar donon ek hain

jo qulzum-e-fana ka musafir hua use
baad-e-murad o mauj-e-khatar donon ek hain

main jal raha hun un ke to hathon se kuchh na puchh
ai 'mushafi' ye dida-e-tar donon ek hain
