nigah oT rahun kasa-e-KHabar mein rahun

kahte hain ki ab humse KHata-kar bahut hain

jab dil ki rahguzar pe tera naqsh-e-pa na tha

gulon si guftugu karen qayamaton ke darmiyan

koi sang-e-rah bhi chamak uTha to sitara-e-sahari kaha

na baam-o-dasht na dariya na kohsar mile

jo charagh sare bujha chuke unhen intizar kahan raha

roz-o-shab ki koi surat to bana kar rakhkhun

his nahin taDap nahin bab-e-ata bhi kyun khule

honTon pe kabhi un ke mera nam hi aae

mizaj-o-martaba-e-chashm-e-nam ko pahchane

be-gangi-e-tarz-e-sitam bhi bahana-saz

aankhon mein rup subh ki pahli kiran sa hai
