maut aaegi jo ruswai ka saman hoga
chaak dil hoga agar chaak gareban hoga

dil ko bahlata hun ye kah ke teri furqat mein
parda-e-ghaib se khud wasl ka saman hoga

hashr mein dekhenge rahmat ka tamasha zahid
jab khatawar khataon pe pasheman hoga

malak-ul-maut ko bhi sath gul apne lana
mujh pe ehsan tera ai shab-e-hijran hoga

rahnumai rah-e-ulfat mein jo ai khizr kare
wo farishta to nahin mujh sa hi insan hoga

hum na kahte the ki hai hosh-ruba husn tera
aaina dekh na tu dekh ke hairan hoga

mujh se kahti hai shab-e-wasl pareshan-nazari
aap ke dil mein bhi shayad koi arman hoga

ku-e-jaanan ki hawas tujh ko bahut hai ai 'shad'
khak ke zarron ki manind pareshan hoga
