yun to barson na pilaun na piyun ai zahid

na rahi be-KHudi-e-shauq mein itni bhi KHabar

gada nahin hain ki dast-e-sawal phailaen

ye fitrat ka taqaza tha ki chaha KHub-ruon ko

talatum aarzu mein hai na tufan justuju mein hai

ba-zahir garm hai bazar-e-ulfat

fikr-e-maash o ishq-e-butan yaad-e-raftagan

na ilm hai na zaban hai to kis liye mahrum

mandir bhi saf humne kiye masjiden bhi pak

baad-e-tark-e-arzu baiTha hun kaisa mutmain

bura ho ulfat-e-KHuban ka ham-nashin hum to

dil mein kahte hain ki ai kash na aae hote

saf aata hai nazar anjam har aaghaz ka

hun wo barbaad ki qismat mein nasheman na qafas

hai ye pur-dard dastan mahrum
