khat ke aate hi wo mukhDe ki safai kya hui

wo manush kidhar gae wo mirzai kya hui

hum na kahte the ki pyare jaan ahl-e-dil ki qadr

ab wo dil kidhar gae wo dilrubai kya hui

zor karta hai ek aalam na-tawano.n par tere

ai sipahr-e-du.n teri zor-azmai kya hui

shaikh-ji aaya na masjid mei.n wo kafir warna hum

puchhte tum se ki ab wo parsai kya hui

roiye is gham-kade mei.n aah kis kis ko ki ya.n

dekhte nazro.n ke apni ek khudai kya hui

ai wafa-begana tha tu bhi to hum se aashna

wo wafa kidhar gai wo aashnai kya hui

go kisi haalat mei.n ho 'qayem' mai.n samjhu.n hu.n tujhe

hai to tu wo hi pa teri kibriyai kya hui
