yas ki kohr mein lipta hua chehra dekha
jism ka ek bigadta hua khaka dekha

apni surat bhi na pahchan saki aankh meri
muddaton baad jo main ne kabhi shisha dekha

shahr-e-pur-haul mein ab ke ye ajab manzar tha
sang kushada tha magar sang ko basta dekha

main bhi gum-sum tha koi baat na karne paya
us ke honton pe bhi jaise koi pahra dekha

tera qurb ek tamanna so tamanna hi rahi
hasil-e-umr yahi hai tera rasta dekha

kya ajab rakh se paida ho koi qasr-e-azim
hum ne aatish mein bhi gulzar ka naqsha dekha

main hi ghamgin nahin tark-e-talluq pe 'kamal'
wo bhi nashad tha us ko bhi fasurda dekha
