mere khuda kisi surat use mila mujh se
mere wajud ka hissa na rakh juda mujh se

wo na-samajh mujhe patthar samajh ke chhod gaya
wo chahta to sitare tarashta mujh se

us ek khat ne sukhnawar bana diya mujh ko
wo ek khat ki jo likkha nahin gaya mujh se

use hi sath gawara na tha mera warna
kise majal koi us ko chhinta mujh se

abhi visal ke zakhmon se khun rista hai
abhi khafa hai mohabbat ka dewta mujh se

hai aarzu ki palat jaun aasman ki taraf
mizaj ahl-e-zamin ka nahin mila mujh se

khata ke baad ajab kashmakash rahi 'shahid'
khata se main raha sharminda aur khata mujh se
