tishna-lab hun muddaton se dekhiye
kab dar-e-mai-khana-e-kausar khule

taqat-e-parwaz hi jab kho chuki
phir hua kya gar hawa mein par khule

chaak kar sine ko pahlu chir dal
yun hi kuchh haal-e-dil-e-muztar khule

raat talchhat tak na chhodi tab kahin
raaz-ha-e-baada-o-saghar khule

lo wo aa pahuncha junun ka qafila
panw zakhmi khak munh par sar khule

hun jo kasrat hi ke qail un pe kya
raaz-e-fath-e-sibt-e-paighambar khule

ru-numai ke liye laya hun jaan
ab to shayad chehra-e-anwar khule

ab to kashti ke muafiq hai hawa
nakhuda kya der hai langar khule

ye nazar-bandi to nikli radd-e-sehr
dida-ha-e-hosh ab ja kar khule

ab kahin tuta hai baatil ka tilism
haq ke uqde ab kahin hum par khule

ab hua hai ma-siwa ka parda fash
marifat ke ab kahin daftar khule

faiz se tere hi ai qaid-e-farang
baal o par nikle qafas ke dar khule

jite ji to kuchh na dikhlaya magar
mar ke 'jauhar' aap ke jauhar khule
