ik 'umr se ulfat ke kaTahre mein khaDaa hai — Arshi Malik

sab ke sab mil kar bhi mujh ko zer kar sakte na the
meraa apnaa haath shaamil hai miri paspaai mein

— Arshi Malik

tu chhuDaa kar haath ik din daf'atan kho jaaegaa
aur meri jeb mein teraa pata rah jaaegaa

anginat taa'viz darvaazon pe laTke rah gae

kisi ke lahje ki yakh-bastagi qayaamat thi
ThiThur ke rah gayaa lab par savaal kaa mausam

— Arshi Malik

ik lafz bhi na lab se kahaa aur ro diye
'arshi' uThaae dast-e-du'aa aur ro diye

— Arshi Malik

lab-e-khaamosh mein hi jaa-e-amaan aaj bhi hai
varna kahne ko to har munh mein zabaan aaj bhi hai
