rindon ko tere aarzu-e-khushk-labi hai
ab ai nigah-e-mast tu kya dhund rahi hai

mansukh hai is daur mein har rasm-e-gireban
ab mashghala-e-ahl-e-junun sina-zani hai

shahzada-e-mani koi aae to jagae
shaer ka takhayyul bhi to khwabida pari hai

muddat se thi aawara wo pahnae-faza mein
khak-e-rah-e-anjum jo mere sar pe padi hai

har khar hai ghaltida-ba-khun dasht-e-wafa mein
ai sang-e-rah-e-yar kise thes lagi hai
