tirchhi nazar se dekhiye talwar chal gai

aur mujh sa jaan dene ka tamannai nahin

halqa halqa ghar bana laKHt-e-dil-e-betab ka

nazuk aisa nahin kisi ka peT

taswir-e-zulf-o-ariz-e-gulfam le gaya

kabe se mujhko lae sawad-e-kunisht mein

KHaksari se jo ghafil dil-e-ghammaz hua

sabit raha falak mere nalon ke samne

haal-e-poshida khula saman-e-ibrat dekh kar

aks-e-ruKH-e-gulgun se tamasha nazar aaya

jalson mein guzarne lagi phir raat tumhaari

karta hai bagh-e-dahr mein nairangiyan basant

be-waqt jo ghar se wo masiha nikal aaya

tere hathon se miTega naqsh-e-hasti ek din

KHuban-e-fusun-gar se hum uljha nahin karte
