kahin pe hijr ka dukh hai kahin visal ka dukh
kuchh pata mera nahin hai aashiyanon mein kahin
dar-o-diwar bhi dete hain hawala mera
nazar se dur ufuq se pare uDan mein the
mana hazar sal se hun dar-ba-dar raha
banjar zamin pe chadar-e-sarsabz Dal de
ai rabb-e-kainat yaqin chahiye hamein
soch kar dariya hai kya sahra hai kaun
kash mil jae ham-mizaj koi
tere alawa koi dusra mila hi nahin
ye jo har harf mere lafz ka uljha hua hai
mere maula tera tohfa hai ye ilham mujhe
kis samt muD gai thi mujhe yaad aa gai
log jis shaKHs ko sardar bana dete hain
so ke patthar pe kabhi dekh ki sona kya hai
