dast-o-pā maare vaqt-e-bismil tak
haath pahuñchā na pā-e-qātil tak
ka.aba pahuñchā to kyā huā ai shaiḳh
sa.ī kar Tuk pahuñch kisī dil tak
darpai mahmil us ke jaise jaras
maiñ bhī nālāñ huuñ saath manzil tak
bujh ga.e ham charāġh se bāhar
kahiyo ai bād-e-sham.a mahfil tak
na gayā 'mīr' apnī kashtī se
ek bhī taḳhta paara sāhil tak
