qadam to rakh manzil-e-wafa mein bisat khoi hui milegi
wahin kahin naqsh-e-pa ki surat padi hui zindagi milegi

milegi han rang mein khizan ke bahaar dubi hui milegi
talash kar khar-zar-e-gham mein koi to kopal hari milegi

charagh-e-sajda jala ke dekho hai but-kada dafn zer-e-kaba
hudud-e-islam hi ke andar ye sarhad-e-kafiri milegi

habab ashkon ke dhaalta ja kamal-e-shisha-gari dikha tu
tujhe inhin nazuk aabginon mein dil ki taswir bhi milegi

hudud-e-dair-o-haram se hat kar jhuka jabin-e-niyaz apni
gharaz se jab be-niyaz hoga to ujrat-e-bandagi milegi

falak par ek chand id ka roz dekhne ko kahan se laun
nazar ki sar-mastiyan na puchho kahin sar-e-baam hi milegi

utha bhi ab parda-e-takalluf sama bhi ja dil mein dard ban kar
rahunga kab tak main yunhi behis kabhi mujhe zindagi milegi

hai jor-e-sayyaad hi ka sadqa chaman ki hangama-afrini
tabahiyan jis jagah pe hongi wahin kahin zindagi milegi

wahi lab-e-khushk par kuchh aahen wahi un aankhon mein kuchh nami si
mujhe muqaddar se jab milegi mata-e-be-maigi milegi

rahen salamat satane wale ye hashr to roz hoga barpa
'siraj' lekin sitam-rasidon ki sabr ki dad bhi milegi
