phulon mein jhalak husn-e-rukh-e-yar ki nikli
hum khush hain koi shakl to didar ki nikli

alfaz se khushbu tere kirdar ki nikli
jab baat masiha tere guftar ki nikli

nilam hue chand har ek shahr mein lekin
raunaq na kahin misr ke bazar ki nikli

honton ki hansi bin gae jo zakhm the dil mein
surat koi jab aur na izhaar ki nikli

dekha to ye samjhe kisi darwesh ka ghar hai
puchha to wo kutiya bhi zamindar ki nikli

phir phul barasne lage lafzon ke dahan se
phir baat kisi ke lab-o-rukhsar ki nikli

zanjir ki tangi thi asiran-e-wafa the
aawaz bhi zindan se na jhankar ki nikli
