siyah-KHana-e-jaan mein sharar-e-shauq ki hai
main bhi raushan hun jamal-e-ruKH-e-jaanan mein kahin
falak ne bheje hain kya jaane kis wasile se
sahil pe samundar ke kuchh der Thahar jaun
na sail-e-rang na sayyara mahtab mera
mere aqab mein hai aawaza-e-numu ki gunj
mere kamre ki diwaron mein aise aaine bhi hain
sab mere dil pe karam us nigah-e-naz ka hai
chaar jaanib chiKHti samton ka shor
jidhar bhi jata hai wo shola-e-bahaar-sarisht
