mitti hun bhigne de mere kuza-gar abhi
masruf gardishon mein hai dast-e-hunar abhi

khud badh ke qatl-gah mein qatil ke samne
maqtul ho gaya hai bahut ba-asar abhi

chehron bhari kitab mein milti nahin hai ab
dekhi thi teri shakl kisi safha par abhi

chamke the lafz teri samaat ki dhup mein
husn-e-khayal tha ki hawa mo'atabar abhi

dil aablon ka rakhne ko shayad utar pade
abr-e-rawan hai dasht mein mahw-e-safar abhi

hum hain charag-e-akhir-e-shab to malal kya
bujh bhi gae hawa se to hogi sahar abhi
