تو دوست کسو کا بھی ستم گر نہ ہوا تھا

Tu dost kasu ka bhi sitam-gar na hua tha

Auron pe hai woh zulm ke mujh par na hua tha

Chhora mah-e-Nakhshab ki dast-e-qaza ne

Khursheed hunooz us ke barabar na hua tha

Taufeeq ba-andaza-e-himmat hai azal se

Aankhon mein hai woh qatra ke gauhar na hua tha

Jab tak ke na dekha tha qad-e-yar ka aalam

Main mo'taqid-e-fitna-e-mahshar na hua tha

Main sada-dil arzadagi-e-yar se khush hoon

Yaani sabq-e-shauq mukarrar na hua tha

Darya-e-maasi tang-aabi khushk hua khushk

Mera sar-e-daman bhi abhi tar na hua tha

Jari thi Asad daagh-e-jigar se meri tahseel

Aatish-kada jagir samandar na hua tha
