zeb usko ye aashob-e-gadai nahin deta
dalil-e-kun hai magar dard-e-la-dawa nikli
halak-e-justuju tha hirs ka mara na tha pahle
na jaane jae kahan tak ye silsila dil ka
jo na ho dard-ashna wo sarKHushi kis kaam ki
ranj-e-duniya ho ki ranj-e-ashiqi kya dekhna
ye aankh tanz na ho zaKHm-e-dil hara na lage
kisi KHayal ki rau mein tha muskuraate hue
ek manzar kahkashani ek KHat-e-bar-ab bhi
hawa-e-tund hai be-samt-o-be-qarina bhi
hai irtibaat-shikan daeron mein baT jaana
ba-nam-e-yar trahdar ai saba le ja
wajud ko jigar-e-motabar banate hain
KHirad ai be-KHabar kuchh bhi nahin hai
suKHan ki dilkashi soz-e-dili lagti nahin mujhko
