main khush hua ki bud mein rakkha gaya mujhe
haalanki bas quyud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

khadshat ki salib pe khinchi gai hayat
haalat ke jumud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

jis samt bhi gaya main ajal mere sath thi
yani meri hudud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

barfab khwab jab meri aankhon mein aa base
ek hashr ki numud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

duniya ko dekhta hun yun hairat se roz-o-shab
jaise abhi wajud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

be-saz gungunaya gaya mujh ko har ghadi
be-tal hi surud mein rakkha gaya mujhe

to kya baqa freb-zada harf hai faqih
to kya faqat nabud mein rakkha gaya mujhe
