wo roz-o-shab bhi nahin hain wo rang-o-bu bhi nahin

koi manzar bhi suhana nahin rahne dete

hamein saliqa na aaya jahan mein jine ka

hue hain sard dimaghon ke dahke dahke alaw

main ki ab teri hi diwar ka ek saya hun

jangal uga tha hadd-e-nazar tak sadaon ka

dil ke ghao jab aaankhon mein aate hain

kitne shikwe gile hain pahle hi

yaadon ka ajib silsila hai

dekhe koi jo chaak-e-gareban ke par bhi

kya adu kya dost sab ko bha gain ruswaiyan

chandni ne raat ka mausam jawan jaise kiya

izhaar-e-aqidat mein kahan tak nikal aae

kuchh ab ke bahaaron ka bhi andaz naya hai

KHirad bhi na-mehrban rahegi shuur bhi sar-garan rahega
