sun ke furqat chup hua aisa ki murda ho gaya
puchhta hai yar ro ro kar tujhe kya ho gaya

dekh kar chashm-e-siyah-e-mah-ru wahshat hui
chandni mein us hiran ka rang kala ho gaya

kar diya abru ne do tukde ba-rang-e-zulfiqar
ek hi talwar mein sari ka aadha ho gaya

kya diya bosa lab-e-shirin ka ho kar tursh-ru
munh hua mitha to kya dil apna khatta ho gaya

munh jo us yusuf ne phera ho gae be-kar sab
dida-e-yaqub chah-e-aina andha ho gaya

dil jo tadpa dagh se raushan jahan-e-dil hua
barq jab chamki andhere mein ujala ho gaya

'arsh' us ki sard-mehri ta-dam-e-akhir rahi
dil hua thanda na sara jism thanda ho gaya
