laga ki jaise kisi kanpte hiran ko chhua
hamare hathon ne jab phul se badan ko chhua

tamam jism mein aasudgi si phail gai
tere dahan ne kabhi jab mere dahan ko chhua

simat ke aa gai kaghaz pe surat-e-ashaar
hamari fikr ne jab bhi kisi ghutan ko chhua

kai maqam pe donon mile zarur magar
kishan ne radha ko radha ne kab kishan ko chhua

lipat ke pahuncha main jab nekiyon ki khushbu mein
lahad ki mitti ne darte hue kafan ko chhua

kabhi na ho saki izhaar-e-ishq ki jurat
ye aur baat kai suraton ne man ko chhua

hum apni jaan bhi kar denge 'faiz' us pe nisar
agar kisi ne kabhi azmat-e-watan ko chhua
