tere karam se khudai mein yun to kya na mila
magar jo tu na mila zist ka maza na mila

hayat-e-shauq ki ye garmiyan kahan hotin
khuda ka shukr hamein nala-e-rasa na mila

azal se fitrat-e-azad hi thi aawara
ye kyun kahen ki hamein koi rahnuma na mila

ye kaenat kisi ka ghubar-e-rah sahi
dalil-e-rah jo banta wo naqsh-e-pa na mila

ye dil shahid-e-fareb-nigah ho na saka
wo lakh hum se ba-andaz-e-mahramana mila

kanar-e-mauj mein marna to hum ko aata hai
nishan-e-sahil-e-ulfat mila mila na mila

teri talash hi thi maya-e-baqa-e-wajud
bala se hum ko sar-e-manzil-e-baqa na mila
