sitam-e-garmi-e-sahra mujhe malum na tha
khushk ho jaega dariya mujhe malum na tha

main ne samjha tha ki firdaus-e-barin hai duniya
ek jahannum hai sarapa mujhe malum na tha

chand danista haqaeq ki talab ki khatir
zulm dhaega zamana mujhe malum na tha

lahlaha uthta chaman meri umidon ka magar
zard tha waqt ka chehra mujhe malum na tha

dosti pyar khulus amn wafa ki khushbu
ye hain alfaz-e-tamanna mujhe malum na tha

barha jis ke qarib aa ke mila mujh ko sukun
mera apna hi tha saya mujhe malum na tha

ahd-e-tifli tha 'kamal' ahd-e-masarrat-agin
gham ke sae mein palunga mujhe malum na tha
