sher kya hai ghubar-e-khatir hai
tair-e-fikr ka koi par hai

bhul sakte ho khud ko padh kar ise
ek mantar mujhe jo azbar hai

wadi-e-yaad mein to har jaanib
chandni raat ka sa manzar hai

baat kar dekhiye mera lahja
mere ashaar se bhi behtar hai

dair-o-kaba ke mod se aage
baen mud jaen to mera ghar hai

daliye is pe bojh sajdon ka
han magar soch kar ki ye sar hai

shaikh sahib na todiye is ko
ye mera dil nahin ye saghar hai

tum jise puj lo wo hai bhagwan
main utha lun jise wo patthar hai

kis ki 'rahat' ki baat karte ho
chhodiye wo to ek kafir hai
