bazar-e-arzu mein kaTi ja rahi hai umr

dene wale tu mujhe nind na de KHwab to de

sar pe suraj hai to phir chhanw se mahzuz na ho

un se bhi puchhiye kabhi apni zamin ka karb

kya DhunDne nikli hai kisi qais ko pagal

libas dekh ke itna hamein gharib na jaan

tu ne bhi sare zaKHm kisi taur sah liye

KHayal aata hai akasr utar phenkun badan

kis liye KHud ko samajhta hai wo patthar ki lakir

ai sham-e-hijr-e-yar meri tu gawahi de

dhund mein kho ke rah gain suraten mehr-o-mah si

chaman ujaDne walo tumhein KHuda samjhe

saDak ke par chala ja raha hai bachta hua

aahan o sang ko zahrab-e-fana chaT gaya

isi liye to haar ka hua nahin malal tak
