kisi ki ishwa-gari se ba-ghair-e-fasl-e-bahaar
sabhi ka chaak gireban hai dekhiye kya ho

tumhein khabar hi nahin ai tuyur-e-naghma-sara
yahi chaman yahi zindan hai dekhiye kya ho

jahan kashud-e-nawa par khizan ke pahre hain
wahin bahaar-e-ghazal-khwan hai dekhiye kya ho

subu utha ki ye nazuk maqam hai saqi
na ahrman hai na yazdan hai dekhiye kya ho

rawan hai mauj-e-gul-o-lala mauj-e-khun ki tarah
chaman shahid-e-bahaaran hai dekhiye kya ho

daraazi-e-shab-e-hijran se mujh ko khauf na tha
kisi ki zulf-e-pareshan hai dekhiye kya ho

hawa ka rang ye hai aashiyan to ek taraf
qafas bhi shakh pe larzan hai dekhiye kya ho

yahi hai dil se shikayat ki mera mahram-e-raaz
mujhi se dast-o-gireban hai dekhiye kya ho

hamin hain pir-e-mughan kafiron ke ai 'abid'
hamin ko dawa-e-iman hai dekhiye kya ho
