rokta hai gham-e-izhaar se pindar mujhe
mere ashkon se chhupa le mere rukhsar mujhe

dekh ai dasht-e-junun bhed na khulne pae
dhundne aae hain ghar ke dar-o-diwar mujhe

si diye hont usi shakhs ki majburi ne
jis ki qurbat ne kiya mahram-e-asrar mujhe

meri aankhon ki taraf dekh rahe hain anjum
jaise pahchan gai ruh-e-shab-tar mujhe

jins-e-virani-e-sahra meri dukan mein hai
kya kharidega tere shahar ka bazar mujhe

jaras-e-gul ne kai bar pukara lekin
le gai rah se zanjir ki jhankar mujhe

nawak-e-zulm utha dashna-e-andoh sambhaal
lutf ke khanjar-e-be-nam se mat mar mujhe

sari duniya mein ghani raat ka sannata tha
sehn-e-zindan mein mile subh ke aasar mujhe
