bach gaya tir-e-nigah-e-yar se — Qurban Ali Salik Beg

"tang-dasti agar na ho 'salik' tandurusti hazar ne.amat hai"

"ab tak bhi mere hosh Thikane nahin hue 'salik' ka haal raat ko aisa suna ki bas"

"sayyad aur qaid-e-qafas se kare raha jhuTi khabar kisi ki uDaa.i hui si hai"

"kya sair ho bata de koi but-kade ki raah jaata huun raah ka.abe ki main puchhta hua"

"'salik' chakha.un un ko maza jaur ka abhi Darta huun kuchh bura na kahen sin ke das mujhe"

"hai in dinon men gardish-e-chashm-e-butan ka daur tera zamana gardish-e-dauran nikal gaya"
