Ghazal 46

kaam ab koi na aaega bas ek dil ke siwa

ek subh hai jo hui nahin hai

main jahan tumko bulata hun wahan tak aao

shaikast-e-shauq ko takmil-e-arzu kahiye

KHirad walo junun walon ke viranon mein aa jao

Nazm 39

tum nahin aae the jab

tum nahin aae the jab tab bhi to maujud the tum

niwala

man hai resham ke kar-KHane mein

mera safar

ham-chu sabza bar-ha roida-em

guftugu (Hind Pak dosti ke nam)

guftugu band na ho

Sher 20

kaam ab koī na aa.egā bas ik dil ke sivā

rāste band haiñ sab kūcha-e-qātil ke sivā

kaam ab koi na aaega bas ek dil ke siwa

raste band hain sab kucha-e-qatil ke siwa

inqalāb aa.egā raftār se māyūs na ho

bahut āhista nahīñ hai jo bahut tez nahīñ

inqalab aaega raftar se mayus na ho

bahut aahista nahin hai jo bahut tez nahin

Qita 58

meri duniya mein mohabbat nahin kahte hain ise

ye hukumat ke pujari hain ye daulat ke ghulam

main to bhula nahin tum bhul gai ho mujhko

jazba-e-shauq ki takmil nahin ho sakti

kahin dariya kahin wadi kahin kohsar bani
