kachche rang utar jaen to sab kuchh yunhi lagta hai

suluk dekh liya be-hunar hawaon ka

dhundle dhundle peD ugti sham ki sargoshiyan

mil jae kisi sham kisi raat kisi din

palkon par moti rakkhe hain sochon par sannaTa hai

jo jaan se hai aziz use tu juda bhi rakh

agar phir shahr mein wo KHush-ada wapas palaT aae

ajib shaKHs hai kaisi ye justuju hai use

uDte hue parindon ke shah-par sameT lun

yaqin gum ho chuka humse guman mahfuz rakkha hai

hum to gum ho gae haalat ke sannaTe mein

gar hun mansur to suli pe chaDha de mujhko

din guzar jata hai par raat se ji Darta hai

ajib tarz-e-taKHatub rawa hua ab ke
