tawil-e-ahd-e-fan hi to wahshat ka hal nahin
pesh-e-nazar junun hai yaro ghazal nahin

ab is ke baad ahd ki tarik raat hai
ye ikhtitam-e-sham hai subh-e-azal nahin

ai dost ishq mansab-e-fahm-o-shuur hai
ye irtiqa hai zehn ka koi khalal nahin

ek umr ratjagon ki aziyyat mein kat di
ab mere khwab nind ka radd-e-amal nahin

kya kya ata-e-neamat-e-rabb-e-karim hai
lekin 'samir' dard ka nemul-badal nahin
