faza-e-sham ziya-e-sahar usi se mili

surKH mausam ki kahani hai purani ho na ho

ghaiz ka suraj tha sar par sach ko sach kahta to kaun

DhunD saya na shajar aage bhi

bazm-e-tanhai mein aks-e-shoala-paikar tha koi

laDkhaDa kar gir paDi unchi imarat dafatan

ahl-e-duniya se mujhe to koi andesha na tha

usi se mujhko mila ishtiyaq manzil ka

sher ke rup mein dete rahna

is bar bhi shoalon ne macha Dali tabahi
