sham aai to ba-har-samt numudar hua

jab bhi paraya tel jalaya charagh mein

ye jaur-e-dast-e-zamana kaha kaha na kaha

imkan ki hadon se nikal kar bhi dekh lo

ghazal jab taza kahta hun purani bhul jata hun

teri girah mein mal faqat chaar din ka hai

aur kya umr ki kahani hai

manzar kai barish se zamin par utar aae

kuchh bhi miyan-e-dud dikhai nahin diya
