wo apni zat ki tashhir se nikal aaya
zaban ka zahr tha taqrir se nikal aaya

hatheliyon ki lakiron mein tha jo poshida
tumhaare hath ki tahrir se nikal aaya

tumhaari yaad jo aai to dil mein huk uthi
purana zakhm nae tir se nikal aaya

tamam umr thi jis ki talash wo patthar
mere makan ki tamir se nikal aaya

zara si der khayalon mein guftugu ki thi
phir is ke baad wo taswir se nikal aaya

shifa ka nam bhi zaitun se hua mansub
wafa ka shahad bhi injir se nikal aaya

ek aaftab-e-wafa ek mahtab-e-nur
hamare ishq ki tanwir se nikal aaya
