girya-e-shab ki shahadat ke liye jagte hain
afsurdagi-e-dard-e-faraqat hai sahar tak
koi aisi baat hai jis ke Dar se bahar rahte hain
shahr gum-sum raste sunsan ghar KHamosh hain
dil kuchh der machalta hai phir yaadon mein yun kho jata hai
dar-pesh nahin naql-e-makani kai din se
ek ek sans mein sadiyon ka safar kaTte hain
utar kar paniyon mein chand mahw-e-raqs rahta hai
chaak-e-daman-e-qaba dagh-e-junun-saz bahut
rah gaya dida-e-pur-ab ka saman ho kar
kinaron se juda hota nahin tughyaniyon ka dukh
girdab-e-reg-e-jaan se mauj-e-sarab tak
nahin hai par koi imkan ho bhi sakta hai
