yahi kaha tha ki khasta-zaban mein baat na kar
ab itni baat pe tark-e-ta'alluqat na kar

tumhein sikha diya tha hum ne dil-lagi ka hunar
khuda ka nam le ab yun hamare sath na kar

mujhe khabar hai ki ehsan asir karta hai
tu aisa kar ki mujhe bar-e-iltifat na kar

usi ke dudh se tu ne jawani pai hai
muhafiza usi basti mein wardat na kar

hamari billi hamein myaun myaun karti hai kya
hudud-e-zat mein rah yun tajawuzat na kar

gharib-e-sham ki tarkib musta'ar le le
palid zikr se guftar-e-wahiyat na kar

main jaanta hun kinara-kashi ko aaya hai
tu apna hukm suna yun guzarishat na kar

abhi piyaada sar-e-shah ka muhafiz hai
abhi bisat palat dunga shah ko mat na kar

kisi 'aziz ko hai intizar ai 'zamzam'
jawan zindagi hai nazr-e-hadsat na kar
