mila to hadisa kuchh aisa dil kharash hua
wo tut phut ke bikhra main pash pash hua

tamam umr hi apne khilaf sazish ki
wo ehtiyat ki khud par na raaz fash hua

sitam to ye hai wo farhad-e-waqt hai jis ne
na ju-e-shir nikali na but-tarash hua

yahi to dukh hai burai bhi qaede se na ki
na main sharif raha aur na bad-maash hua

ho ek bar ka rona to roun bhi dil ko
ye aaina to kai bar pash pash hua

bala ka habs tha 'sajid' hawa ki basti mein
chali jo sans ki aari main qash qash hua
