nahin malum kitne ho chuke hain imtihan ab tak
magar tere wafadaron ki himmat hai jawan ab tak

ye tufan-e-hawadis aur talatum baad o baran ke
mohabbat ke sahaare kashti-e-dil hai rawan ab tak

kahan chhoda hai dil ko karwan-e-ah-o-nala ne
ki hai aawara manzil yusuf-e-be-karwan ab tak

talash-e-bahr mein qatre ne kitni thokaren khain
samajh leta jo khud ko ban hi jata be-karan ab tak

dil-e-bimar ko hamdam hawa-e-sair-e-gul kya ho
ki hai na-mo'tadil aab-o-hawa-e-gulsitan ab tak

azal se gosh-e-dil mein gunjte hain zamzame tere
magar ai dost main ne tujh ko paya be-nishan ab tak

ayan afsurdagi-e-gul se hai anjam gulshan ka
magar khun-e-dil-e-bulbul hai sarf-e-ashiyan ab tak
