ye piilī shāḳh par baiThe hue piile parinde
laraztī dhuup kī āġhosh meñ sahme parinde
ḳhudā ma.alūm kis āvāz ke pyāse parinde
vo dekho ḳhāmushī kī jhiil meñ utre parinde
mire kamre kī vīrānī se uktā.e parinde
sulagtī dopahar meñ kis taraf jaate parinde
hisār-e-jism se ghabrā ke jab nikle parinde
havā kī zad meñ aa kar der tak chīḳhe parinde
ḳhud apne sho.ala-e-parvāz se jalte parinde
ḳhalā-e-yaḳh-zada meñ rah ke bhī sulge parinde
mire dast-e-havas-ālūd se uḌte parinde
kisī shāḳh-e-javānī tak nahīñ pahuñche parinde
azal se ik hasīñ ḳhushbū ke dīvāne parinde
abad tak 'kaif' dasht-e-rañg meñ bhaTke parinde
