kis haqiqat ka inkishaf kiya
dil ne mujh ko mere khilaf kiya

mere hone ka e'tiraf kiya
mujh se jis ne bhi ikhtilaf kiya

to ne mujh ko muaf kar dala
main ne khud ko nahin muaf kiya

aankh main gard-e-khud-numai thi
phir mujhe aaine ne saf kiya

ek surat dikhai dene lagi
main ne dil mein ajab shigaf kiya

ek duniya tabah kar dali
ek zarre ne inhiraf kiya

masjidon mein the shor-o-shar 'nayyar'
main ne sahra mein etakaf kiya
