jab kucha-e-qatil mein hum lae gae honge

to pahle mera hi haal-e-tabah likh lije

fasl-e-gul kab luTi nahin malum

nazar ki fath kabhi qalb ki shikast lage

mujhko shikastagi ka qalaq der tak raha

nae zamane mein ab ye kamal hone laga

tamanna ban gai hai maya-e-ilzam kya hoga

tanz ki tegh mujhi par sabhi khinche honge

bhitar basne wala KHud bahar ki sair kare maula KHair kare

dimagh arsh pe hai KHud zamin pe chalte hain

KHud apne jurm ka mujrim ko etiraf na tha

udhar wo hathon ke patthar badalte rahte hain

na chilmanon ki hasin sarsarahaTen hongi

udas kaghzi mausam mein rang o bu rakh de

hum chaTanon ki tarah sahil pe Dhaale jaenge
