chhalakne lage ashk-e-gulgun mizha se — Shaikh Qudratullah Qudrat

rakh na aansu se vasl ki ummid
khaare paani se daal galti nahin

gae vo din ki bahte the paDe naale in aankhon se
sar-e-mizhgaan talak ik ashk ab aataa hai mushkil se

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

qaatil tiri gali bhi badaun se kam nahin
jis ke qadam qadam pe mazaar-e-shahid hai

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

sabza o gul kahaan se aae hain
abr kyaa chiiz hai havaa kyaa hai

kuchh phulon ki khaatir bhi kuchh phulon kaa
sab se achchhaa rang churaanaa paDtaa hai

bagulaa jin ke sar par chatr-e-shaahi hai zamin masnad
vahi aqlim-e-gham mein aah ki naubat bajaate hain
