'Hadood-e-zabt-e-wafa se guzarne wala tha
main apne appko nilaam kerne wala tha,

safar k shoq ne majbor ker dia warna
main tere shehar men 1 din or theharne wala tha,

khud apne saaye se hi chonk uthta hai ab to
woh jo k kisi se na darne wala tha,

hoa hun qatal apni khwahishon k hathon se
main itni jaldto hargiz na marne wala tha,

lahu na or raha jism men warna
main es ghazal men or rang bharne wala tha,'
