musafiran-e-ishq ko wo dasht wo dayar de
barahnagi ke ahd mein jo chadar-e-ghubar de

sahar ki raushni mein dekh zindagi ki mayyaten
ye hadson ka shahar jab libas-e-shab utar de

na jaane kab se zindagi ko intizar hai mera
pata nahin kahan hun main koi mujhe pukar de

ye sach hai zindagi mere qadam ki jumbihson mein hai
magar zara salib se koi mujhe utar de

khuli hui hain jism ki tamam band khidkiyan
kisi charagh se kaho koi kiran guzar de

main koh koh dasht dasht chhod dun nishan-e-pa
junun diya hai gar mujhe junun pe ikhtiyar de

ye kya ki dasht-e-zist mein har ek samt ret hai
kahin to mauj-e-ab de koi to aabshaar de

tu 'kazim'-e-safir-e-ahd-e-nau ki baat sun to le
phir us ke baad tu use mita de ya sanwar de
