dawa asar nahin rakhti dua qubul nahin
dasht ke KHas hawale nazar aate hain mujhe
sehr-e-talab na KHwab-e-fusun mujhko mil gaya
dariya ki rawani mere lahje mein nahin hai
ye jo sae sata rahe the mujhe
hua na mujhse koi ham-kalam gardish mein
KHak thi KHak-dan mein kya tha
yun kisi baat se ab Dar nahin lagta mujhko
ye jo hum apni KHanqah mein hain
lafz tartib se rakhta hun main tamsil ke sath
mere aasab pe chhati hi chali jati hai
ashk ko raegan samajhte ho
kisi ne dekha nahin iltija ke lahje mein
apne aaba se bahut dur hua jata hai
KHwahishon se bar-sar-e-paikar ho jaana paDa
