mal-o-mata-e-dasth sarabon ko de diya
jo kuchh zar-e-khayal tha khwabon ko de diya

rakhne ka jo guhar tha use dil mein rakh liya
bikne ka tha jo mal kitabon ko de diya

sabzon ko khush-libas bana kar zamin ne
kuchh rashk ka jawaz gulabon ko de diya

apne lahu ki bund bana kar dam-e-nashat
ek soz-e-la-zawal sharabon ko de diya

aae na jab giraft mein saif-o-qalam 'naim'
apna tamam karb rababon ko de diya
