rang us mahfil-e-tamkin mein jamaya na gaya
khamushi se bhi mera haal sunaya na gaya

wahshat-e-dil ne hijabaat-e-jahan chaak kiye
ek parda rukh-e-jaanan se uthaya na gaya

ishq ek dagh sahi daman-e-hasti pe magar
khud mashiyyat se bhi ye dagh mitaya na gaya

kar diya daftar-e-hasti to pareshan dal ne
magar ek khwab-e-pareshan ko bhulaya na gaya

wo andhera tha ki hangam-e-sahar bhi hum se
sham-e-andoh-e-judai ko bujhaya na gaya

sarhad-e-ishq se aage na badhi wahshat-e-ishq
husn-e-hushyar ko diwana banaya na gaya

lakh unwan se bhulana unhen chaha tha 'rawish'
kisi unwan se magar un ko bhulaya na gaya
