gul ko maHboob meiN qayaas kiyaa
farq niklaa bohot jo baas kiyaa

dil ne hamko misaal-e-'Aeenaa
ek 'Alam se roo-shinaas kiyaa

kuchh naheeN soojhtaa hameN us bin
shauq ne ham ko be-Havaas kiyaa

subaH tak sham'a sar ko dhunti rahee
kyaa pataNge ne iltemaas kiyaa

aise vaHashee kahaaN haiN ai KHubaaN
'Meer' ko tum 'abas udaas kiyaa
