the jo khushbu wo hawa kya hote
barg-e-gul baad-e-saba kya hote

jaan dete rahe shohrat ke liye
log namon se riha kya hote

hum to khud se bhi mushabah na hue
hum zamane pe rawa kya hote

rabt badhta gaya mafhum ke sath
harf se harf juda kya hote

jin ki mitti mein na thi khak apni
wo badan dast-e-dua kya hote

sans lete jo zamane ki tarah
hum ajal se bhi qaza kya hote

baadban bhi na kabhi jin pe khule
wo samundar ki hawa kya hote

jin ko takhliq kiya main ne 'samad'
wo sanam mere khuda kya hote
