kya karen ja ke gulistan mein hum
hain ba-kunj-e-qafas fughan mein hum

jaante aap se juda tujh ko
karte gar farq jism-o-jaan mein hum

hain tajalli-e-zat ke teri
ek parda sa darmiyan mein hum

gul ka ye rang hai to ab ek din
aag rakh denge aashiyan mein hum

wan taghaful ne apna kaam kiya
yan rahe mehr ke guman mein hum

aasman ko nishana karte hain
tir rakhte hain jab kaman mein hum

mar ke nikle qafas se khub hua
tang aae the is makan mein hum

gar yahi aah hai to dekhoge
rakhne kar denge aasman mein hum

shakh-e-gul ke gale se lag lag kar
rote hain mausam-e-khizan mein hum

bagh tak jate han agar pate
taqat us jism-e-na-tawan mein hum

'mushafi' ishq kar ke aakhir-kar
khub ruswa hue jahan mein hum
