'shuur' waqt pe dil ki dawa hui hoti
to aaj fikr na hoti shifa hui hoti

murawwatan bhi agar aap aa gae hote
tamaniyyat hamein be-intiha hui hoti

na jaane kitne baras ho gae fughan karte
kabhi to dad-rasi ai khuda hui hoti

na tha nasib mein dil ki murad bar aana
to kash sabr ki aadat ata hui hoti

hamara haal tumhaari samajh mein aa jata
agar kisi se mohabbat zara hui hoti

hum apne-ap se rahte na be-khabar to bhala
hamari surat-e-haalat kya hui hoti

'shuur' aap ki aamad se lakh behtar tha
gharib-khane pe nazil bala hui hoti
