bujha ke rakh de ye koshish bahut hawa ki thi

durusht kyun tha wo itna kalam se pahle

sar pe tegh-e-be-aman hathon mein pyala zahr ka

raushniyan badan badan tere mere lahu se hain

kisi ke samne izhaar-e-dard-e-jaan na karun

bahte hue lamhon ki kahani hi badal de

shaKH-e-mizhgan-e-mohabbat pe saja le mujhko

sufi-e-shahr mere haq mein dua kya karta

KHud apne aap se ye gila umr bhar kiya

talluqat ka ek ye bhi shaKHsana hua

kaise kahen dar-ba-dar nahin hum

KHulus ho to dua mein asar bhi aata hai

faqat kaghaz pe likha bar-e-aziyat utra

chaar jaanib se sada aai meri

hausla tu ne diya dukh ki pazirai ka
