yusuf ki tarah raunaq-e-bazar main hi tha
punji tha main hi aur kharidar main hi tha

wo jis ke tir se mera sina hua figar
gar tu yaqin kare mere gham-khwar main hi tha

kal mai-kade mein thik hi dekha tha aap ne
ba-sahiban-e-jubba-o-dastar main hi tha

us ka to mere waste aaghosh wa raha
duniya-e-ab-o-rang se bezar main hi tha

ta umr apne aap ko deta raha fareb
poshida apne aap mein ghaddar main hi tha

dekha ye aap ne mera andaz-e-khud-kushi
khud apne dushmanon ka taraf-dar main hi tha

jis ki bina thi ret pe jis mein lagi thi lakh
us qasr-e-be-asas ka meamar main hi tha

ilzam us ko dun bhi to kis munh se ai 'wali'
jab har suluk-e-bad ka saza-war main hi tha
