mani-o-mafhum kya hon ishq ke mazmun mein
jis tarah koi khayal aae dil-e-majnun mein

ishq se hoti hai is shiddat ki garmi khun mein
khaulta hai jaise dariya dopahar ko june mein

jism mein rag rag phadak uthti hai soz-e-ishq se
garm-e-tughiyan jis tarah amwaj hon jaijun mein

husn se wazeh hui hai manawiyyat ishq ki
shamil-e-mafhum hai unwan bhi mazmun hai

yun to hain ajza bahut se shamil-e-tarkib-e-ishq
aarzu lekin sar-e-daru hai is majun mein

is tarah hun qaidi-e-haalat 'bismil' jis tarah
sher ho pinjre mein ya shah-e-zafar rangun mein
