wasl ki shab bhi ada-e-rasm-e-hirman mein raha

thak gae tum hasrat-e-zauq-e-shahadat kam nahin

fikr hai shauq-e-kamar ishq-e-dahan paida karun

kyun KHarabaat mein laf-e-hama-dani waiz

chaarasaz-e-zaKHm-e-dil waqt-e-rafu rone laga

parsai unki jab yaad aaegi

chahta hun pahle KHud-bini se maut aae mujhe

bhule se bhi na jaanib-e-aghyar dekhna

wasl mein bigDe bane yar ke aksar gesu

ek aafat-e-jaan hai jo mudawa mere dil ka

kahne sunne se meri unki adawat ho gai

shamim-e-yar na jab tak chaman mein chhu aae

ghaib se sahra-nawardon ka mudawa ho gaya

karo na der jahan mein jahan se aage chalo

gar yahi hai aadat-e-takrar hanste bolte
