'mahar ki tujhse tawaqqo thi sitamgar nikla
mom samajhe the tere dil ko so paththar nikla

dag hun rashk-e-mohabbat se k itna betab
kis ki taskin ke liye ghar se tu bahar nikla

jite ji ah tere kuche se koi na phira
jo sitamdida raha jake so mar kar nikla

dil ki abadi ki is had hai kharabi k na puch
jana jata hai ki is rah se lashkar nikla

ham ne jana tha likhega tu koi harf ae ‘Mir’
par tera nama to ek shauq ka daftar nikla'
