manzil-e-karb ki thakan odhe
so gae sokhta badan odhe

bargah-e-junun-o-wahshat mein
khamushi hai koi sukhan odhe

baad-e-sarsar qaba-e-shabnam odh
khushbu-e-gul hai bankpan odhe

raat ke sae mein lab-e-dariya
chand wahshat ka ek gahan odhe

sabz mausam ki khwab-gahon mein
zard patte hain ek ban odhe

surmai sham ke dariche par
saya-e-hijr hai kafan odhe

unghti hai saba fasilon par
ek kadi dhup ki ghutan odhe

mahw-e-raqsan hai dar-ba-dar 'rashif'
gird sahraon ki pawan odhe
