tamiz-e-kafir-o-momin khirad ki be-basari
quyud-e-dair-o-haram hain dalil-e-kam-nazari

wo ishq kya ki ho na-ashna-e-jazb-o-junun
wo zakhm kya ki ho ehsanmand-e-chaaragari

mujhe khulus ne luta to kuchh murawwat ne
ada-shanas-e-wafa ki na puchh hila-gari

baghair soz-e-tamanna fusun-o-afsana
fughan-e-nim-shabi ho ki nala-e-sahari

ye mujh ko kaun si manzil mein ishq le aaya
na kaam aai dil-e-nukta-dan ki nukta-wari

gulon se sehn-e-chaman hai abhi tahi-daman
sikhao ghuncha-e-taza ko fann-e-jama-wari

hawas ne dam bichhae hain har taraf 'faruq'
butan-e-asr ki mujh se na puchh fitnagari
