qabu khizan se zoaf ka gulshan main ban gaya
dosh-e-hawa pe rang-e-gul-o-yasaman gaya

bargashta-bakht dekh ki qasid safar se main
bheja tha us ke pas so mere watan gaya

khatir-nishan ai said-fagan hogi kab teri
tiron ke mare mera kaleja to chhan gaya

yaadash-ba-khair dasht mein manind-e-ankabut
daman ke apne tar jo kharon pe tan gaya

mara tha kis libas mein uryani ne mujhe
jis se tah-e-zamin bhi main be-kafan gaya

aai agar bahaar to ab hum ko kya saba
hum se to aashiyan bhi gaya aur chaman gaya

sarsabz mulk-e-hind mein aisa hua ki 'mir'
ye rekhta likha hua tera dakan gaya
