bahr-ayaadat aae wo lekin qaza ke sath

tum mere pas hote ho goya

go aapne jawab bura hi diya wale

us ghairat-e-nahid ki har tan hai dipak

de ke dil hath tere apne hath

dida-e-hairan ne tamasha kiya

us naqsh-e-pa ke sajde ne kya kya kiya zalil

ejaz-e-jaan-dahi hai hamare kalam ko

kuchh qafas mein in dinon lagta hai ji

tu kahan jaegi kuchh apna Thikana kar le

mere taghir-e-rang ko mat dekh

manga karenge ab se dua hijr-e-yar ki

chaara-e-dil siwae sabr nahin

kya jaane kya likha tha use iztirab mein

dushnam-e-yar tab-e-hazin par giran nahin
