misal-e-mushk zaban se meri fasana gaya

ye kaun hai jo sar-e-rozgar aaya hai

dil ne meri nahin suni tauba

sahmi hai sham jagi hui raat in dinon

ai umr-e-naz tujhko guzare guzar na tha

markaz-e-harf takallum tha bayan tak na hua

shorish-e-harf hai ayagh mein kuchh

ba-waqt-e-sham umidon ka Dhal gaya suraj

yun sitam Dhae gae hain tere diwane par

yaqin ki had ko ja pahuncha jo pahle tha guman apna

mere wajud ki gahraiyon mein rahta hai

wo jo karte the baat baat ka gham
